Specifications:
Brand: Omega Mfg.
Model: Polymer Dust Cover, AR15, Black
Platform: AR-15
Material: Polymer
Size: Standard
Color / Finish: Black
Features and Information:
Material: The dust cover is constructed from polymer material, which is the same type of material commonly used for the upper and lower receivers of AR-15 rifles.
Compatibility: This dust cover is designed to fit standard-sized upper receivers of AR-15 rifles.
Color / Finish: The dust cover comes in a clean black finish, which complements the aesthetics of most AR-15 rifles.
Function: The primary function of a dust cover on the AR-15/M16 platform is to provide protection against environmental elements. The dust cover is typically held in place with a captive detent against a groove cut out in the upper receiver. When the rifle's action, such as the bolt carrier, reciprocates during cycling or manual operation, the dust cover opens to allow ejection of spent casings or debris.

Overall, the Omega Mfg. Polymer Dust Cover is a practical accessory for AR-15 owners, helping to keep the rifle's action clean and protected from dust, dirt, and debris during use and storage.
