How can you tell if the rail is bent or not? If it is bent, how much does it have to be bent to affect the function of the 'mag? Thanks.

You would have to seriously wack that rail to bend it. What kinda rail are we talking about here?

RTp rail; it wobbles just a little bit when I lay it flat on my desk. The reason I ask is because i'm scared I bent it trying to put in my twist lock assembly, which I did end up getting in.

Take your body and put it on the rail if its sitting flush then you should be fine, what is giving you the impression that its bent?

lay it flat on a table and put the body on there, you should be able to tell , or use a level ;)

Are you sure the table is level? I know most table arent perfect enough to tell if something is level or not.

Ok, my body sits flush with the rail, but when I put the rail flat on something, it wobbles back and forth just barely. When I say barely, it wobbles like 1mm from side to side, like a see-saw. It might not even be 1mm, but you can here it when you press on each side when it hits the desk.
