How to replace a dust cover on any standard mil-spec AR Upper receiver, (without removing barrel or barrel nut) including Aero Precision M4E1 standard upper. Video link: th-cam.com/video/SLnlHo9xsxA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NmqTAK-vLADmptvI
All of Areo Precision's M4E1 or M5E1 upper receivers don't require the c-clip ... just there standard AR-15 upper receivers do. I'm glad my video was helpful 😉👍 ... please consider subscribing to my Channel it's always appreciated Brother. Enjoy your day 👊
Awesome.. THANK YOU so much. This instructional video is exactly what I needed to see. Your instructions are precise, and very easy to understand and follow. Thanks again my friend.
So l'm going thru some of my videos and I just realized that I never responded to your comment ... wow truly sorry for that😔 ... I always try to say thanks for posting a comment . Hope all is well with you Brother 😁 👊
@@JerrBearTactical .... no biggie good sir. But you making the extra effort a year down the road to comment is really cool. Thank you! Shows you care about your subscribers. 👍🇺🇸
Thank you 🙏 just put together an M5 Aero precision upper assembly, barrel, dust cover, forward assist. Funny, bought an AR10 lower assembly from palmetto and it’s a .308 DPMS upper with an AR10 lower 😂it works fine just goofy i didn’t know they were different lol
I appreciate you stopping by and checking out my channel. Thank you very much for subscribing that is truly appreciated also. Thanks again hopefully you and your family stay safe in these troubled times in our country.😁🇺🇸👊🦅👍
@@JerrBearTactical Wow thats really cool buddy! I really want to thank you for such an amazing and well thought out and quick reply to my comment! It is so great to actually be acknowledged and not just be ignored per se by channels. I know it sounds petty but it does mean a lot when channels acknowledge peoples comments with more than a 1 or 2 word answer. Anyhoo, sorry for my ranting, just wanted to thank you very much again Jerrbear! Im a proud new subscriber of you and your channel. Im very glad I found your channel. Im basically a gun nut, or so they call me, so I pretty much watch gun vids with ALL my free time. I will be sure to watch your whole channel before too long😉😉. One last thing. I wish you and your family safety during these troubling times. Please by all means stay safe and healthy!
@@aholegunner good morning to you Sir😁 as of right now I try to make it a point I answer every single person that writes and leaves a comment to my videos. I truly understand your frustration when you post a comment to a channel and don't get no response or litte response. The bigger channels I sometimes believe have forgotten that ! They started out small just like I have. And my channel is still small and I don't see it growing into something with a hundred thousand subscribers. I got into this to share my knowledge and experiences with other people in the firearms community. Just paying it forward there's lots of people that don't know or want to know and won't ask. A-Hole Gunner enjoy the rest of your day and stay safe ... lol 😁👊🇺🇸🦅👍
@@JerrBearTactical ok thanks!!! It looks like the spring was wound backwards, i put it like you had it and the lip was wrong, i put it backwards and voila! Thank you!! I had an Aero M5 upper and put it on an AR10, apparently I need a DPMS .308 lower as I got the wrong one I thought AR10 and AR308 were the same…live and learn! Thank you! Nobody has a video like you do. I needed this for the forward assist and dust cover. I got it all done yesterday and have the gas line and gas key left, then hand-guard and i can test it out! Thank you 🙏

I’m curious tho what all dust covers work on the m4e1 because I was wanting a strike industries and it says on their website that their dust covers won’t work on a m4e1 upper.
So I haven't used the Strike Industry dust cover on any of my builds, though I have seen guys that have used the SI polymer dust cover but had to modify it a bit to work. SI newest dust cover is made of aluminum and I'm guessing that it won't work at all without modifying it but that's a chance you would have to take. I personally prefer just a standard mil-spec dust cover, but that's just me. Strike Industry makes great stuff. I use there flatwire buffer spring in all my builds.
that is all going to be based on what type of upper receiver you have. Here is a video link that I think will help you with removing and replacing your dust cover. I hope it helps here's the link : th-cam.com/video/SLnlHo9xsxA/w-d-xo.html
let me know if this helps and or answers your questions. If not I will make another video for the threaded upper receiver dust cover remove and replace😉👍👊
@@JerrBearTactical Thank but I figured it out, on a noninhanced receiver the dust cover for just pulls out and is then held in pla ce by the handgurd but thanks again!
@@JerrBearTactical I guess my question is can I put a dust cover on by just taking off hand guard ? or does barrel nut and barrel have to come off .? im actually trying to google it now. I forgot to put on dustcover I had the gunsmith torque my barrel nut and hand guard, on already and now I see its blocked. ready to remove my hand guard now.
@@joejeans7913 you will have to remove the handguatd and then the set screw toremove the dust over rod. If there's any interference from the barrel nut just file down that nub of the barrel nut that's in your way. You shouldn't have to remove to much material if it's in your way and it won't hurt the barrel nut. Hope this helps😉
What if I don’t have a enhanced version and I want to put on a dust cover? Would I have to disassemble the whole upper just to add the dust cover without a aero hand rail? Lol I messed up hahah
It's all going to be based on weather the dust cover rod can be slid out of the way and there's no interference with the barrel nut on a threaded receiver 😉👍👊🇺🇸
Perhaps you didn't read the video title🤔 ... this was a specific video for that exact upper receiver from Aero Precision M4E1/M5E1 Enhanced upper ... not threaded upper 😉 thanks for stopping by and checking out the video 😁👍
This does not work on the M4E1 system. You have to completely remove the barrel nut and barrel. Why do manufacturers make it go out the ONE WAY that has shit infront of it?
Removing the dust cover on a standard Aero Precision M4E1 upper receiver is very simple to do. You don't have to remove barrel or barrel nut. I never made a video on how to do it because this video link explains how it's done ... th-cam.com/video/SLnlHo9xsxA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NmqTAK-vLADmptvI ... thanks for stopping by and watching, and I hope the video link helps you with your issue 😉👊🇺🇸

Thank you. I thought I was crazy looking for a nonexistent tiny c-clip on my Aero upper.

Great vid! Could’ve been 11 min shorter lol
Ok to have the spring 180? It’s the same thing here just the long side sits on the right and then the small tab on the left it works the same
Yep, should be just fine 👍 ... thanks for stopping by and watching, Brother😉 👊🇺🇸

Great vid man.
Thanks for watching 👊 and stopping by the channel 😉👍
It is odd how the short side of the dust cover spring pokes up past the ejection port.
No little tiny c-clip on the end of the port rod on Aero's?
Nope not on this style upper receiver 😉
I’m curious tho what all dust covers work on the m4e1 because I was wanting a strike industries and it says on their website that their dust covers won’t work on a m4e1 upper.

Thanks for the help man
Wow It's been a year since you posted. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner 😔 Thanks Brother 👊
How do you take it off of a (NON ENHANCED ) Aero upper receiver that doesn't have the set screw
that is all going to be based on what type of upper receiver you have. Here is a video link that I think will help you with removing and replacing your dust cover. I hope it helps here's the link : th-cam.com/video/SLnlHo9xsxA/w-d-xo.html

@@casperghost7148you don't have to remove the barrel nut?..... this is in regards to an Atlas upper, not enhanced.
@bolriconyc3795 I will post a video for Atlas dust cover soon. Thanks for stopping by and watching 😉👊🇺🇸
can this be done without taking off the hand guard?
No unfortunately not ... you have to remove the handguard.
@@JerrBearTactical I guess my question is can I put a dust cover on by just taking off hand guard ? or does barrel nut and barrel have to come off .? im actually trying to google it now.
I forgot to put on dustcover I had the gunsmith torque my barrel nut and hand guard, on already and now I see its blocked. ready to remove my hand guard now.
apologize for the rookie questions . my first upper build.
@@joejeans7913 you will have to remove the handguatd and then the set screw toremove the dust over rod.

@@joejeans7913 not a problem 😁 it's how we learn 👊
Does the barrel have to be removed or was that just for instruction to show component orientation?
Sorry for the late reply ... this can be done with or without Barrel mounted to the upper receiver 👊🇺🇸
I’ve stabbed that short tab though my thumb countless times!
Well done!
I've been poked a time or to myself ... lol
What if I don’t have a enhanced version and I want to put on a dust cover? Would I have to disassemble the whole upper just to add the dust cover without a aero hand rail? Lol I messed up hahah

They need a spring-loaded one like for when you replace your watch band or you put a new roll of toilet paper
Strike industries makes one. Thanks for stopping by 😉👊
waiting for Magpul new dust cover install like 5 seconds..LOL
Yes it will give Strike Industry a run for their money 😉👍🇺🇸 ... thanks for stopping by and posting a comment Brother 👊
Good video.. But it took you 3mins and 30 seconds before you even put a tool to the upper!! You turned a 3 min job in to 13 mins
I ground that tab down a little so it don't snag my finger.
That works if one has the same fore end sleeve/barrel nut, etc., and all the stars (and barrel nut) align. Otherwise. that's not happening.
Perhaps you didn't read the video title🤔 ... this was a specific video for that exact upper receiver from Aero Precision M4E1/M5E1 Enhanced upper ... not threaded upper 😉 thanks for stopping by and checking out the video 😁👍
Exactly, This doesn't work with the Aero M4E1 AR15 upper with a Aero Precision Atlas handguard
