Literally, how else would you do it?

[@mick5740]

Twist it under neath !? That’s the problem, didn’t explain that part

[@andrewmaranto5254]

How shall I use the C-clamp? The cover seems to be fine without it.

[@TrajectoryArms]

Some uppers have provisions that keep the roof captured on the one end so the c clip isn't necessary

[@SpartanBrix]

Thanks. I was tryna figure out why my spring wasn’t settled into the little crevice, and then I realized I had the entire cover backwards lol.

[@WildBillOutdoors]

Was finally able to do it thanks to ur video, subscribed.

[@TrajectoryArms]

Glad it helped!

[@H_Hold]

I could use some help and I'm not finding anything on it. I've got an ar-10, got an engraved dust cover as one does; but the rod its mounted on can't actually move out; I bought the completed upper so it came assembled like this, there's material on the rail preventing the removal of that rod.

[@MeMadeIt]

Lots of YT vid on how to uninstall/install dust covers with an assembled upper. It isn't as easy as shown here but it's not that hard.

[@H_Hold]

@@MeMadeIt idk wym; I can't find any that have what's going on with mine. There's no opening for the pin to slide out towards the stock, about .25" of it sticks out towards the barrel but part of the rail is physically in the way of this pin, about 2/3 of the diameter of the pin is blocked so it's not something a lil bit of bending and effort could get done.

[@mick5740]

Got it ! Thanks !

[@Trashcankicker.]

Mine doesn’t close . Any help ? It was working fine until I installed the BCG.

[@tvman54]

Just get a Magpul dust cover no need to reinstall the rod and spring it comes with both

[@NoLimitSpazzz]

You’d still need to remove the spring and rod on the new magpul to install it.

[@rylandunson4904]

How do I remove it

[@jawnlaughlin5]

You just pull out that pin and hold on to the spring or it will go flying. Your dust cover pin may have a c-clamp which you'll have to remove first, in order to slide it out.

[@camerons.9304]

Or... Just do the Magpul one🤣 but yeah... Common thing thanks for the quick video

[@marcosmaciel1347]

How do I fix mine it won’t close

[@jonbravo9278]

Can't really see what your doing with your left hand.

[@juanlife0252]

How do I get dust cover to close please help 😔

[@ShawntiaKnott]

I used a hammer and a towel.

[@IronGunner10]

Great

[@Serpentis666]

Some kids never played with legos I guess… needing instructions for something this simple is quite mind boggling…🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Politicallyhomeless957]

Thank you 🙏
