Hello,

I have a question for the M5 upper dust cover.  I was wanting to install the  Strike Ultimate Dust Cover for 308 on the M5 upper. Also on the M4E1 upper I read some that say it does not fit. Other say it does. I have seen pics on here with it installed.  Did you need to modify them some to fit? Did it just fit right on?

Thank you,

James

Im assuming u mean the polymer one.  Mine fits on my m4e1 just fine.  I did smooth out the  edge just a hair w a nail file for good measure.

Yes, the polymer ones fit fine with maybe a little shaping if needed. The aluminum ones do not fit the m4, have one and states on package it will not. Not sure about the m5.

Ive used the poly ones on the M4 and M5 without a problem.

Ive only used the aluminum cover on one M4 and it fit fine. I didnt have to alter it at all. I did add those little pads to help reduce noise and metal on metal contact when it opens.

Fwiw, I have the poly cover on my m4e1 upper and an aero gen1 w/o forward assist and both of them need to be filed a bit as right now they only flip about half way down.
