It's not rocket science to prevent a short and the anodizing of the heatsink is not even electrically conductive. Patrick @ Castle creations insists that the bullets touching the heatsink is not a problem and never was.
He usually admits to issues they have had, but a novice at this hobby understands the short problem. If they touch at rest, they will rub dynamically and eventually short after the coating is worn off.

I have two friends that just sent theirs back because of the short. One even hurt the battery. Some of these don't have any room to put lexan like mine, so I just removed the bullets all together.
