They are thicker and can be milled for a side charge later on if you want.
In an article by Robert Whitley it says it's good to use a thick receiver and you can bed the barrel to receiver with loc tite if the fit is loose.
I've read some say don't use loc tite,but he shoots very accurate ragged hole groups.
My DPMS slick side was only slightly out of square, but I lapped it anyway, since I already had her in the stirrups, so to speak.
It also happens to be one of my straightest shooters, so I am pretty convinced the extra wall thickness has something to do with it. It also has a 24" SS Bull barrel, so the two seem to mate up well.
