MaDuce Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Bedding for durability works on the same principal as headspacing. The more play, the more things batter each other loose. Bedding eliminates all play entirely if done right. Of course, it has the potential to only prolong the gun's life. Nothing is everlasting.

98Z5V Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 The only practical thing that you can bed on an AR-type is the barrel to the upper receiver. There is no "action" to bed, like on a bolt rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsmoke007 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 I never thought that inquiring about something that I heard on a TV show would stir up so much response. Thanks for all the great input and replies everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jgun Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 I have to admit that when I first read the title of the thread, before I actually read the post, I was expecting to see some graphic pictures of carnage that had befallen someones AR, kind of relieved when I found out what it was actually about, but you had me going for a minute there.
