[ARCHIVED THREAD] - .22LR Dust Cover Question

Posted: 5/8/2006 11:40:05 AM EDT

I recently purchased a DPMS .22LR upper off the EE. This is my first experience with any .22LR upper for the AR. However, I noticed you cannot close the dust cover. There is no place on the bolt for the raised point on the cover to fit into. Are they all like this? Can I mill out a slot? Or should I just leave it alone?

Yes.

No.

Leave it alone.

Thanks.

Do any of them have a bolt hold open? Does it hurt to dry fire?

That's what I'm assuming too. I guess that means I have to count shots.
