Hello,
I recently installed a Houge free-float tube on my Stag carbine, and afterwords when reinstalling the flash suppressor I notices that I really had to crank on it to get it tight and right-side-up, and I could see my reciever flexing a bit in the vice. It freaked me out so bad I left it with about a quarter turn till it will be on right side up, what should I do? I have sheared off buckets of bolts before by being a bonehead and overtightening, but no way I'm doing that to my AR... At this point I'm just to freaked out to keep cranking on it. Is it okay for my flash hider to be a little crooked? Am I just being paranoid about breaking the reciever?
Thanks!
