So some things i noticed on my AR-15 during disassembly that i had questions about.
#1 - When the bolt carrier is fully assembled. Is the firing pin supposed to have a small amount of lateral movement in the carrier before the pin stops it from falling all the way out?
#2 - My actual bolt in the bolt carrier sometimes does not "twist and retract" back into the carrier when i charge the handle. I think this is due to me sometimes following the handle back with my hand so the full force is not applied. Am i suppose to just let the charge handle fly forward or do i possibly need to lube the actual bolt some more?
