The problem is that we have gone over a gazillion times how overworking an AR HTS set can cause one grief. I have a set here that came with a bunch of parts that is downright comical because the person making it "match grade" had absolutely no clue how they worked. All kind of smoothing and work on places that have nothing to do with the operation and feel of a good trigger.

The point and pics show a deformation in the hammer after just a few hundred rounds. You should never see something like this in the real world on un-touched parts. Many in an attempt to make their parts better only make them worse. Grind your 1911 feedramp into the barrel since it looks good and only woe will follow.

In my case this was like a joke that I wanted to see how most that just play "part A into tab B" build an AR. In the end I discovered something that should not be and can lead (uncorrected) to doubling or worse depending on how far it is allowed to go. There is a very small amount of engagement surface and any deformation of the two parts is cause for concern but most is caused by the owner reading some internet BS about how to turn your stock trigger into the best thing since sliced bread.

As of now it feels great with nothing more than 1000 grit paper and a little oil but if it as soft as I think it is it will return but it can be fixed.
