"it's a great add on to my Classic Army M249. I'm very glad to say that it's the best part to get for a M249 if you don't have a scope rail on yours.



Pros:
good solid feel
full metal
no modification needed to fit a Classic Army
easy installation
looks very cool
uses the stock iron sights
and the best part i think about it is that it comes with everything on it all you need to put it on is the iron sight and the original hardware from the original gun

Cons:
no instructions on how to install (but pretty straight forward and very easy)

"Just got mines today. Awesome cover. It came wrapped in Bubble wrap, lol. I put it on my CA, now I need a Elcan. I have an ACOG but I prefer the ELCAN. Or maybe an EOtech.

"Great rail cover! Just what I was looking for. Fits my A&K perfectly! Good buy if you want to add scope to your M249 or need a replacement Metal feed cover.

"This does not fit the A&K M249 Middleweight, you need to dremel out a few parts but other than that, great rail, adds a satisfying weight to the gun.

"Good product, but it's not a direct fit for the A&K mk46. Had to mill down the metal around the two latch mechanisms, and also on the pivot ears in order for the lift spring to fit.

"If you’re looking to replace your non-railed for a railed feed cover. This is the one. Though I had to file down the place where it mounts since it was too small. Other than that it serves it purpose!

"That's good to me.

Nowadays, CA M249 Para has no rail on it.
So I ordered this after reviewing and asking to Evike.com

Actually, I needed a little modification to set it on mine.
I cut the end of the finishing connections by my dremel.
It works well!

"Got this for my A&K m249 Mk2 the moment I saw it was in stock. Now that it's installed, its fantastic, but it took some work to get it to fit. Be prepared to spend a little extra time with a dremel if you have an A&K m249.

Since I have yet to see a guide anywhere online on how to remove the old feed cover, and install a new one, here is very simple tips to point you in the right direction. On the pin holding the feedcover on, there is a hidden little E-clip (or M-clip, or W-clip, im not sure what its called) over on the left side, touching the spring-like thing. Pop it off (dont lose it!! and there might be another somewhere else on the pin), and the pin comes out and the feed cover and other stuff falls right off.

The feed cover did not fit my A&K without some modification (hence 4 stars). I had to grind the left hinge tab down with a heavy grinder, like the kind used to sharpen lawnmower blades. A dremel will work just fine, with the right bit. Once ground down to size, simply put it all together as it was before. make sure the e-clip lines up with the grove otherwise it wont fit on the pin. without the e-clip, the pin will fall out on its own.

The fact that it needed a little modification to fit prevents 5 stars. Also, the rail itself was too wide for one of my red dot sights with a quick detach mechanism, so be warned. It fit sights with conventional attachment types without problem. Dont let the negative feedback fool you. once i got it on, i was very pleased. I would highly recommend to anyone who doesnt like the iron sights. plus, with a red dot sight on, the m249 looks pretty cool.

I apologize for lack of detail. this was only to provide some basic tips on what you need to do. This is already a long review, and i didnt want it to be any longer than absolutely neccessary. Hope it helps someone figure it out

"This will fit the A&K Middleweight M249 with modifications. I had to file off about a 1/2” of metal from the rear end of the feed cover to get it to sit and lock into the rear of the gun. Also, the C-Clip holding the old one on, will not fit back on but the metal feed civer has a grub screw threaded hole to lock the feed cover pin in place so be aware of these things before you pick this up.

"The cover I received had o marking on it what so ever which is exactly what I wanted since my A&K M249 had some ugly UK importers markings. It was also better quality that the A&K cover.

However... The design for the latch on the cover was different and now the spring and latches do not work properly to keep it closed. I have to give this a low score.
