I read the same article and wondered something I will ask here. What are you talking about ? In my experience as a Marine and NG unit armorer the "Bolt carrier key" is the T shaped pin that locks the bolt into the carrier body, it cams the bolt out and is held in place by a STRAIGHT cotter pin as it must be removed to dis assemble the bolt and carrier for cleaning.
The screws are only torqued down to 35 to 40 inch-pounds so staking is mandatory. I wish I could post pictures from my manual. I have a PDF version too but don't know how to save pictures from it. You need to use a center punch and stake around the edge of each screw 3 times. If you replace the key you're supposed to use new screws too. I know a quick and dirty way that also works if you don't have a center punch, but it's not mil-spec. Just use a dull cold chisel and stake each screw going down at a 45 degree angle on the edges of the key. It's not pretty but as long as you don't raise the metal over .025" above the top it works. That's a field expedient method for emergencies that's not in any manual.
