Friction on bearings of new Gunfighter

Just received my SCG and noticed my Gunfighter has a bit of a friction issue, in one direction on each axis, the X being the loudest. I triple checked my cams and screws and tried with and without pressure from the dampeners. It almost feels like it’s coming from the inside of the bearing. It doesn’t seems to affect the function but I haven’t tested it yet in-game.

My MCGU Gunfighter did not exhibit this behavior but wanted to check here to see if there’s anything easy I can do or if its a larger issue.

Here’s a link showing what I mean (turn on sound):

Nothing unusual in the video; if there's something there it must be something you feel in hand rather than making noise. Check this video to see how to adjust the cams; if their screws are too tight or too loose you might feel like it's grinding.

Okay thanks. Yeah I think my brain is comparing the feel of the metal in my right hand Vs the plastic on my left. After I got the cover on the noise was gone. I don’t think it’s a problem now that I’ve got it set up.

The bigger issue is... how about a left handed metal grip 8) !?

Thanks as always for being so responsive.
