Thats an OOW receiver, and IIRC they are slightly thicker than 1mm.

Most of the issues with them are build related, so if its was built right and functions right then no worries. The other issue is they are not fully heat treated. Nothing you can do about that now, but i doubt you'll ever wear it out regardless.

OOW receivers on the average are about 1.2 mm thick.......and there is nothing wrong with them.

the rumor I have read is that VECTOR made some with  jokin' receivers, but they stopped, and went back to OOW.........I don't know if it's true or not, but that is the rumor I have read
