Extractors like those found on Mauser type bolt actions and 1911 type pistols (including Glocks) are designed to have the cartridge rim ride up under the extractor as the round is fed from the magazine. On those type firearms it is better to have the rounds feed from the mag. I said better, not required. Some older internal mag type rifles with Mauser type extractors had mag cutoffs to allow single shot loading, keeping the rounds in the mag for a real SHTF event. Those rifles all had to have the bolt close with the extractor overriding the rim.
Most, if not all, of the bolt faces on modern mfg rifles (bolt, auto/semi, lever) are recessed and the extractor has to override the rim, but they are designed to take those stresses.
The AR has a recessed bolt face and is designed to close on a cartridge, overriding the rim. To assure that the bolt goes into battery properly, letting the bolt ride forward by using the bolt release is the proper way to chamber a round. So slam away.
