Anti rotation came about because the guys with full auto lowers - who could well afford to use them - eventually suffered some wear. KNS responded, we are talking about a lower that now retails for thousands of dollars. Full auto M16's trade for $10,000. So, some KNS is a nice thing to have.
In that use, the cyclic rate and harmonics can combine to get the spring tails to jump out of the retaining grooves and that is how the pins walk out. PROPERLY ASSEMBLIED guns don't typically have that problem. 22 years Reserves with two to four qualifications annually, I never saw any full auto or burst weapons ever have the problem, and we frequently had excess ammo to consume at the end of range fires.
In the build your own at home crowd, there is a possibility that a combination of parts might contribute to rotation or walking. One method to prevent rotation is to simply hammer the end of a pin slightly so that it's oval shaped a few thousandths to take up the slack. Insert the opposite end, and tap the last bit flush. It should take up the slack and prevent rotation. That's how armorer's do it.
They don't have the budget or access to KNS pins, and they don't need to bother, either.
As for walking out, it goes to proper assembly, and not using GI springs. Light springs can and will increase the probability of jumping out of the retention slot due to the harmonics of operation. It's a spring that no longer is GI spec, that's the issue, not the pin. If the tail of the spring has reduced tension to get the trigger lighter, it's what has been changed. Sometimes there are unintended consequences.
Looking at the use of the M16/M4 with over seven million produced and used in combat for the last 45 years, the standard GI setup is reliable. What or how it's used in combination with other aftermarket parts is where the majority of the concern is from.
