My first AR was a Rock River rifle. I've modded it significantly in the time I've owned it - changed out the fore-end for a lighter unit, and a few other things.
My question concerns the bolt carrier group and accuracy. The BCG is what is known as "semi-auto" and I'm interested in changing it out for a full-auto bolt group for longevity; I'm also interested in the nickle-boron finish I'm seeing, for ease of cleaning. I also just like to tinker, if I'm honest
Anyway, what I don't know is how the bolt is matched to the chamber, so to speak, from the factory. The rifle is quite accurate (better than I am) as it is and I don't want to affect that.
Can I swap out the whole BCG for a different unit, or will I potentially ruin the rifle's precision?
Thanks!
