Look at it this way, if people never take their bolts apart they will never know the mechanical joy of wondering if Pie are round or if Pie are square.

One problem with disassembling the bolt to check head space is if your looking at a rifle to purchase. Most shops/owners well not allow this.
The Okie gauges have a cutout for the striker and extractor, are lightly magnetized and head space can be checked on a fully assembled rifle in about thirty seconds.
This isn't rocket surgery.
