I'm planning to get one of these rifles in the fall and see a lot of comments on the relative ease of swapping AI barrels compared to the TRG. Is this because the headspace of the AI is baked into the design (torque down the barrel and you're done) while the TRG requires careful use of go/no-go gauges?
