Interesting. I'd imagine that it'd come down to tolerances - the more wiggle room there is, the more that parts can hammer on each other instead...

Because the aluminum is clamping down on the barrel through the torque you set with the screws, even if it loosened up you could always clamp it...

doubtful. transmission of force would first induce movement in the combined barrel/bolt/bolt carrier body before the receiver experiences...
