Thanks fal308 for the responce but to clarify what I meant I was refering to champhering the bottom of the port which is a structural part of the upper receiver. It is about 1/4 inch behind the chamber opening and is shaped somewhat triangular until it transfers to a champhered section that continues back about three inches. It doesn't seem like champhering this all the way forward to the barrel would hurt. I have done this on other rifles to aid in extracting loaded rounds.I hope this clarifies my question. Thanks again
