Sure....
The OLY uppers don't have the goofy added deflector. And neither does my .45 AR. Never had problems with getting hit by brass, and i'm a southpaw. |

It's a "gas deflector," not a "brass deflector." And yes, it does help somewhat, especially if you're using a suppressor.

+1 9MM are blowback and this was designed to be a "gas deflector". |

Well....I beg to differ in my case.
My Oly upper did not come with a gas deflector, and I was getting a bunch of junk from the ejection port. I'm a lefty. Added the deflector, and look at the damage to it after 300 rounds.  I'm a happy camper now. The deflector is cheap and easy to replace. |

Specialized Armament, Gun Parts Corp, Brownells, the usual suspects. Obviously, you'll also need the 1/2 port door. there's also a little spring that holds it in place against the upper.
