Does anyone here know of a way to get the bolt to slide inside the bolt tube without a gritty sound? I've tried everything in my cleaning kit to get the gritty sound/feel and I can never get rid of the grit sound. I've tried everything I know,mutiple times with no luck.

Could it be because of the polimer serface of the interior of the tube?

Any one chime in here.

Sorry for the stupid question....
Use a baby bottle brush with some CLP on it. After a half-dozen strokes or so, wipe it out with a rag. Repeat if necessary. You also need to make sure the slots the bolt carrier slide in are clean, as well as the bolt carrier itself and the slots in the bolt body.

FWIW, the fact that the lower is polymer has nothing to do with the sound or the cleaning.
