I know it is normal for if you put pressure on the lockbar for the detent to be pushed further into the blade making it harder to open. However, what makes this unique, is any pressure on the lockbar while it does push the detent into the blade, the detent gets stuck in the blade. When I physically just slightly ofc outward when the blade is closed after I've squeezed the handle slightly, I can hear the "pop" of like when a titanium lockbar gets stuck noise. I've owned 4 XM-18's. First time for this, I'm curious has any other XM-18 owners had the detent get stuck after pushing on the lockbar before?

You mean when the blade is fully closed, you can actually press the lockbar so that the detent ball will further pop into the blade? If yes, I don't think it is normal.
