✅ How to Install an AR-10 Dust Cover – Step-by-Step Guide for Easy & Secure Assembly
Installing an AR-10 dust cover is a simple yet essential upgrade that protects your rifle’s ejection port from dirt, debris, and moisture. Whether you're upgrading or replacing a damaged cover, this step-by-step guide ensures a fast, secure, and reliable installation. No gunsmithing required!
✅ What You’ll Need:
-
AR-10 dust cover
-
Ejection port door rod
-
Ejection port cover spring
-
Small flathead screwdriver or pick tool
-
Needle-nose pliers (optional)
-
Light gun oil or lubricant (optional)
✅ Step-by-Step Installation Instructions:
✅ 1. Prep Your Workspace
Before you begin:
-
✅ Ensure your rifle is unloaded and safe to work on
-
✅ Set up a clean, flat work area with good lighting
-
✅ Gather all required parts and tools
✅ 2. Insert the Dust Cover Spring
-
✅ Take the ejection port spring and locate the long and short arms
-
✅ Insert the spring into the slot on the dust cover, ensuring the long arm rests against the dust cover flap
-
✅ Wind the spring one full rotation to create tension — this allows the cover to snap open when released
✅ 3. Align the Dust Cover and Spring Assembly
-
✅ Position the dust cover in place on the upper receiver
-
✅ Hold the spring in position while aligning the hinge holes on both the dust cover and the receiver
✅ 4. Install the Ejection Port Rod
-
✅ Slowly insert the ejection port rod through the first hinge point
-
✅ Continue sliding the rod while ensuring it captures the spring and passes through the opposite hinge
-
✅ Use a small tool (like a pick) to keep the spring tensioned during this step, if needed
✅ 5. Secure and Test
-
✅ Once the rod is fully seated, make sure it’s flush or locked in place if using a knurled or notched rod
-
✅ Test the dust cover by closing it and tapping the release — it should pop open instantly
-
✅ Add a drop of gun oil to the hinge for smoother action if desired
✅ Installation Tips:
-
✅ Take your time with the spring tension—this is the trickiest part
-
✅ Needle-nose pliers can help hold the spring steady during alignment
-
✅ If your rod includes a retaining clip or C-clip, install it securely to prevent movement
✅ Compatible With Most AR-10 Uppers
This process works with standard AR-10 upper receivers and most .308 builds, but always double-check compatibility with your specific model or upper brand.
