Still not getting what FA does that can't simply be done with a finger on the carrier. You *can* quietly chamber a round without FA. Am I missing something?
As for a dust cover on a hunting rifle, WHY? None of my other (non-armalite pattern) hunting rifles has ever had anything covering the action. Bolt guns, lever actions, and semi-auto hunting rifles of many makes and calibers- no dust covers of any kind. And no one complains either!
What do you guys do? Drag your rifles behind you on the ground while you hike in? I don't get it. In a war zone like the sand box or jungle, absolutely! But let's be real guys. That's not what this thread is about.
