Headspace or no for all mil-spec parts?
So i bought a noveske rifle and then i bought a Rubbercity armory nitride BCG to replace the phosphate one that came with the noveske. If the rifle is mil-spec and the RCA BCG is also mil-spec, do i need to go through the trouble to head spacing?
Both big name, high end manufacturer making mil-spec parts. Would you go through the trouble to head spacing?
thanks

It never hurts to check with a no go gauge. But in my experience you shouldn't have a problem with quality parts.

For the cost of go/no-go gauges, cheap peace of mind. Especially if you plan on building a few uppers, that's for anyone.
I honestly dont think you will have any issue at all, but people make mistakes, we are people.
The real question is if your headspace is out of tolerance between the two BCGs and your Noveske upper, what are your plans to correct it?HGW, llc ~ Title 1 & NFA sales/manufacturing ~ Transfers - Title 1 $20 - NFA $50
