I should have made it more clear. I know it should touch but his seems to be a lot more than the samples we checked. are there any specs on this ? He dosen't want to damage it.

Buy some shims. Take off the gas cylinder and put the shims between it and the barrel ridge.
That should fix it.
Sounds like the barrel may be machined ever so slightly shorter that it should be.
You're not going to put it  out far enough the gas port won't line up.
Or you can shorten the gas plug like you said.
