This statement confuses me. Of course metal expands under heat, that's exactly the idea; the receiver expands and loosens the locked threads of the screw. Are you saying that heat is a bad idea because the screw will expand along with the receiver or are you agreeing that heat is a possible solution? (except for the hopup rubber potentially melting)
