So I'm doing a SHTF build, and got my criterion core barrel and aero upper today. I put them together without a barrel nut for shits and giggles, and I noticed this. I've built like 10 ars and I honestly don't think I ever checked this, or maybe I did and wasen't worried about it. Is this normal or is something out of spec on the barrel or upper receiver? It might be hard to see, but on the right side of the feed ramp/barrel extension it doesn't appear to be perfectly aligned. Thanks!
