I would not worry about the bur. I would shoot the gun. The bur will be gone after you fire a couple of rounds. Burs on gas ports are common on new barrels. Charles the Gunsmith.

they don't shoot out but they do get smaller, they can contribute to stripping of the bullet jacket which along with the pieces of the burr wearing off can occlude the gas port.

I say occlude bc the burr rarely does anything of the sort and if it does it only rarely (once IME) "plugs" the gas port, usually it just restricts the gas flow.

Had a burr on a M-4 barrel. It would get pieces of jacket in it and cause malfunctions within about 200 rounds. I just used a drill bit slightly smaller than the gas port and leaned on the burr side and it took it right out, DON"T get carried away though.

+1... A couple shots, burrs usually gone... Ive never experienced one that was stubborn and wouldn't shoot out... Not saying that it doesnt happen, just never has happened to me... |
