Chip on Lug on BCG ok?

So I recently bought a AIM Surplus Nitride BCG, and when I received it today, I saw that one corner of one of the lugs on the bolt was chipped during shipping.

It was pretty obvious due to the fact that the aluminum silver color stood out vs the Nitride black around it.

Just took a pic to show.

Is this something that is nothing or should i get a new bolt from Aim?

Preppers canceled my order this afternoon because I called them a disgrace... Not ordering from those clowns again.

Truthfully, we cancelled your order because of your lack of civility and your threats ... What is a problem is when you threaten my customer service team and make demands instead of being civil. Plain and simple just don't be an a**hole (where you told us to shove it).

Looks like it got dropped and landed on that lug, seems more like a deformation than a chip. It's not on the locking side of the bolt so it is probably OK, but just to be on the safe side I'd send AIM a pic of the bolt and see if they will replace it. Keep in mind that bolt is holding back about 55,000 PSI, I'd suggest not taking that gamble.
