Picked up three AR9 billet uppers. The ejection ports look to be about 2/3 the size of the standard 556 ports, hence I need a specific ejection port cover. I know the old school 9mms had the funny looking shell deflector and a precision cut port cover.... What is the modern equiv that is compatible with billet AR9?
Thanks. |

Is there a provision to attach a cover?

Maybe could modify one of the spring loaded polymer ones (strike/magpul/etc).

They make them if you really think you want one? See how the cut out for the latch/detent is offset? It's just a cut down version of a standard dust cover.

Good looking upper.
Just cut a standard one with a dremel, leave it about 1/16” long and finish it on a stone or emery cloth to get it straight/clean. Or machine the ends to make it clean. |

I'd have to radius the part that I cut. Not super hard I guess, but I might as well just run them without.
