Mausers where case hardened to prevent wear and no other reason, not to prevent deformation under operation stresses. The case hardening also prevented lug setback. A Mauser receiver could be used without case hardening but in time lug setback would occur and galling and wear would occur to the bolt guide channels.

Lug seat setback IS...."deformation".
