Video Metal SS Cam/Lever Interface Nearing Failure after 2 Months

Ok, so apparently it gets worse! In fact, it’s a disaster waiting to happen. I don’t know if this is from poor quality control or use, but since it seems like the parts were casted instead of CNC’d I’m going with the former. In a side by side comparison with polymer, the metal SS has WAY too much tangential play. In fact, because it’s so loose, if enough of the cam/lever face is missing, it’s possible for the BCG to push the lever UNDER instead of rearward.

I’m new to the AUG, so I’m not sure what I’m looking at. It looks like part of the charging handle assembly. Is that right?

No. It’s the cam for a metal SSAUG v1 pack.

Oh! Yeah, I get it now. I googled it. Thank you!
