Is there a way to modify or buy a para top cover to fit a non para nosed metric upper? Thanks

When I built my Para FAL I used the railed para top cover from DSA.

Thank you for the replies. I do have a DSA railed top cover, but as always after spending money on upgrades, I find myself wanting to return it back to stock LOL.

I have a DSA railed top cover sitting in the parts box that I took off and returned my carbine to original |

You could modify the top cover by cutting/grinding off the "nose" but then it won't capture the recoil spring and the top cover tends to get ejected out of the upper when the action is opened. |

It was close, but still works. YMMV and all that, but I would think it would work on all of them if you are very careful |
