Is this normal?

[tigersfury]

I don't know if this is normal on all angels, but I noticed something on my 06 Speed. When I took off the barrel after playing the first time, I saw small nicks at the edge of the barrel where it mates with the breech. Is this normal or is my bolt coming too far forward and scraping the barrel or is it something else like the barrel is not mating perfectly with the breech? Thanks in advance for anybody that can shed some light.

yea its normal..angels are notorious for doing that. the annodizing will wear away in that spot over time but it does not affect the performance at all.

Actually..... i know what he's talking about....
I got my 06 speed about 3 weeks ago, As soon as i took it out of the box i noticed 2 marks on the end of the barrel, by the threads. I checked and they were on the other end of the barrel too.

Both sets of marks look exactly the same, so i had just assumed it was tooling marks... i wasnt too sure.. but i was definately confused on why my barrel had marks on it
