Murs tolerances are very strict. Even a vltor charging handle was a little tight in mine. But so was my reaction rod.

Have regular raptor in my noveske mur. No problems.

I expected tight tolerances.....the N4 was pretty tight, but I've literally shaved 2 metal streaks into the brand new Noveske Raptor CH, which wasn't a "cheap" option. I upgraded because I thought it would add to the "Noveske" theme of the rifle.

I had to "work" mine in also.
I thought , fuck, I paid a lot for all this and it doesn't want to play well together!

My regular Mur I bought a couple of months ago had the same issue. If you hold it to a light just right, you'll notice how the end of the channel has some rough spots where they can't machine it with an endmill or something. Micheal at Rog Tactical was great in helping me out and took it back no problem. Probably could just file it a smidge if you don't care about losing some sanitizing in the process.

I measured mine with a dial caliper, the Raptor is larger in width
than the standard charge handle, Much beefier handle |

I had a similar experience with a standard mur and raptor.

Same experience with a non-chainsaw MUR and a regular (not Noveske marked) Raptor.

They (Noveske) are offering to take it back and look both the upper over and the charging handle. They are a stand up company for offering, I'm just debating on whether or not I want to tear down my rifle again and ship the parts back lol...

No issues on mine, it was tight but not that bad.

Since it freed up, I don't see any reason to send it back. I'm just going to run mine. YMMV.

My exact thoughts.
That is why I don't know if if want to tear it down just to have an "in spec" on returned, just to get wear again. This isn't a safe queen |

Interesting.....seems like a fine line between strict tolerance and out of spec.....just sayin'
