Hello!
I'm obviously very new to assembling AR-15s. Welp I finally finished my AR but in the process I noticed something. I bought a complete upper with a PSA Cold hammer forged barrel with a front sight post. The problem is that when I removed the front sight post to install a low profile gas block, I saw where they drilled into the barrel for the front sight post retaining pins. Is this bad to keep exposed? I hope it isn't because I would hate to have to install it all again and ditch my VTAC Alpha Rail
