Touchhole liners

[Flint62Smoothie]

Are you sure the builder was not accusing the use of a removable liner? I have received counsel to not make it a regular habit of removing a liner (or a nipple for that matter) as part of the regular cleaning routine. The reason being that repeated removal and replacement of these threaded objects can erode the threads.

I have never heard the claim that the mere presence of a liner was an inherent danger.

Nope, this builder is very vocal about the use of any vent liner as being dangerous.

That's gotta be Danny Caywood you're talking about, as he is quite vocal - and I'd add as being biased - about liners.

If someone told me liners were inherently dangerous, I would simply reply that the millions of "uneventful" shots fired from guns with properly installed liners says otherwise.
