On some g36s the inner barrel floats in the gas block/outer assembly. Some guns have grub screws to tighten the barrel down and most likely it's mounted on the bottom near the front, so that might be enough to cant the barrel upwards to cause a strike. I know they were hitting because there'd be a ping and you could see the flight path go off at about 30-40 degrees.

The fliers went away after I went to a K front end and added an appropriate barrel extension to cover the inner protruding from the gas block.
There is space between the inner barrel and the outer barrel size that does cause some misses.
