Next time I'll just PM you EZ and let you field these questions. And I am moody. Late night last night and an early morning and a long day and I still can't fall asleep!
I knew a guy once that took his key off the carrier every time he cleaned his rifle. Not recommended but I guess he didn't know any better because it was a RRA and they don't exactly stake their carrier keys all that well, or at least his wasn't. Or maybe it was until he took it off. Hell I dunno. My old bushmaster wasn't staked "good" but I would just check to make sure it was tight every thousand rounds and never had any issues.
I try not to jump into these threads right off because I either sound like a dick or somebody comes along and tries to prove me wrong. But I just couldn't help myself with the google comment. And I still feel the same way. I always go to google and try to read as much as I can from lots of different sources before I venture to ask or answer a question if I dont already have first hand experience. It's just a lot better for me and everyone else because it makes it a whole lot easier to spot the bullshitters from the "been there done that got the t-shirt" guys. Sorry again for the snappy reply.
I say "a lot" too much. Going to sleep!
