Frequently Asked Questions
Will this dust cover fit my AR-15 upper receiver?
Yes. The Fortis Billet Aluminum Dust Cover is designed to fit all mil-spec AR-15 upper receivers chambered in .223 Remington or 5.56 NATO. It installs using the included spring and C-clip and requires no permanent modification or special tools — it's a straightforward drop-in replacement for your existing ejection port cover.
Why choose an aluminum dust cover over a standard polymer one?
Standard factory dust covers are typically made from stamped steel or polymer, which can flex, crack, or wear over time — especially with heavy use. The Fortis billet aluminum cover is machined from a single piece of 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with a Type III hardcoat anodize, making it significantly more resistant to impact, abrasion, and environmental wear. It also adds a premium aesthetic that matches high-end billet upper and lower receiver sets.
Is this compatible with AR-10 or .308 builds?
No. This dust cover is sized specifically for mil-spec AR-15 uppers chambered in .223/5.56. AR-10 and .308-platform rifles use a larger ejection port and require a correspondingly larger dust cover. Be sure to verify your receiver's platform before purchasing.
