I was reading a CNN article about montana and wolves when at the bottom was this link

http://www.ehow.com/about_6393920_dust-cover-handgun_.html?utm_source=outbrain&utm_medium=test7


Now forgive me if I'm wrong but I thought the dust cover was over the recoil spring ( at least on a 1911) the article seems to be talking about the ejection port........ it's kinda funny to read how wrong it is .

ehow.com is not MSM. They're not media or journalism per sae. They're a content farm, their content is 80% computer generated 20% low paid online submissions from people who hope to earn a slice off their ads. They generate articles based on the most common search terms.

This explains it better:

So that little door thingy ain't a dust shield.

I do think mine is defective.
