Two things, I have about 4-500 rounds through my 556R. I know the dust covers can wear out, but this seems premature for this to crack and rip like this after so few round. Might replace them, but at $40 a pop, idk if I want to do that yet.
The second thing is that the charging handle seems to be peening the back edge of the slot. Is that normal? Is something wrong here? What could cause or prevent this from happening?
