Thanks.
In case someone was wondering what we were talking about with the screw plug, here is a picture of it. It is made from aluminum, knurled and anodized black. With a side charging receiver, the slot where a charging handle would go is threaded to use this plug instead. Now with the AR15, it uses the gas pressure directly on the bolt.As the bolt moves to the rear, the gas tube end is exposed. So it is possible that some gasses might get pushed out of the slot where the charging handle used to be. it could be some oil spray from lubricants too. Thus your cheek and eye might get some spray on it from the oil and or gasses. Another good reason to where safety glasses or eye glasses anyway. But the plug simply screws in to the slot at the back of the upper receiver.
