If you read how original M-16 rifles were treated in battle field conditions and yet surely fired. I highly doubt a civilian version (AR) would see that same abuse and fail reliably because of a single chamber scratch.
About the only disappointment you may see is a mirrored chamber scratch on all yellow brass from now on.
