I bought the BCM upper and it was super tight.

Never came back ren.  Locktight the barrel to the receiver?  I did when I built mine.  Some say to use red, I have even seen a guy that uses epoxy and fits the BE to the receiver exactly using a lathe(I think that does not do much more than locktight and is a waste of time).  I used blue to make it a little less permanent, but a permanent bond would probably net the most benefit.   

I can go into my reasoning and theory behind it if you are interested.
