Quoted for truth! After many "discussions", a few locked threads, and plain old name calling on other boards, I try to limit most of my Sport talk to this board.

There are other forums that are friendlier. But most of the time I get at least one "No dust cover?! Gasp". Black duct tape if I really need a dust cover. It was good enough when I was in the Corps, so its good enough now.

That would be a big HELL NO!  I would see no need as a civilian for either. But especially those dust caps. We didn't even use those when I was in.

I know my next furniture upgrade is going to be an Apex hand guard...

It'll fit around the stock front sight once I cut off the sling and bayonet lug...the fun just never ends! haha
P.S. Forgot to mention that it clamps onto the stock barrel nut as well. |
Thanks for the info guys. I didn't mean to hijack the Sport thread! I really appreciate your help!

That trick goes back to WW 2. Hell, my grandfather talked about doing that during the North African campaign back in '42!

Seems to be a consensus among Jarheads...we all, no matter what generation, used the same trick. they all probably picked it up from Chesty!! LOL

Grandpa Jar was a soldier. I believe one of Patton's. Close enough I guess.
