Cover or other protection for your AR's brass deflector?

Lost me at shooting "cheap steel cased ammo" while talking about your precious safe queen.

You may be better off shooting custom nerf-cased ammo. Bonus: it's also lead-free.

If my circle of shooting buddies found one of us putting anything on the case deflector to prevent nicks he'd get a swift kick in the nuts and be savagely mocked for at least a month.

All in good fun. Case of beer and a few stiff drinks heals all wounds among friends.

FYI i have a couple AR slick side uppers (no deflector) that also get brass marks from ejecting cases. The marks are just a tad farther back than where a deflector would be. So theres that.

Your worried about the case deflector but ok with running cheap steel case ammo through it?

[fnlrun]

Can you guys recommend something nice and velvety to cover my hammer?

[eviioiive]

No. I rarely even use cases for transport

Anyone have a safe queen that they have taken steps towards protecting the brass deflector from getting banged up too much from doing its job? Especially if shooting cheap steel cased ammo.

I would be curious if anyone has tried putting a piece of gaffer's or electrical tape or maybe brushed on some plati-dip over the pad of the deflector. Any risk of the adhesive actually doing damage to the upper's finish?

If you are shooting it, then it isn't a safe queen and who cares about brass marks. if it is a safe queen, then it isn't being shot and brass marks aren't a problem.

Any other questions I may assist with?

No mention of the dreaded carpet scars

I Googled 'brass deflector cover' and it took me to this thread.

LMAO!

For the love of god DO NOT DROP IT ON CARPET. my bcm with acog has never seen a rifle case and gets cleaned when it's needed. Throw in back of jeep, shoot and bring back home.

With the price of ammo right now, they are all safe queens all but a EDC 9.
