What is the included tap used for when assembling the kit?

The included tap helps align screw holes that are close but not perfectly lined up, such as the lock bolt hole or the tang bolt holes. Threading the tap through the hole first, as if it were the bolt itself, helps everything align so the actual bolt starts and threads in much more easily afterward.
