Hey guys I was building Meng's Bradley M2 when I noticed there's a piece missing in the turret construction. The hole is shaped like a parallelogram just under the coaxial mg. The hole is about an inch or two in size. Does anyone know which piece fits into that hole, or how I can fill the hole up? Thanks everyone.

Is the hole for ejecting spent rounds from the coax?

I'm not sure, the hole is about 2inches in area, parallelogram shaped, in the same area that houses the 240 coax mg, and the piece closest to the hole is piece g32. Thanks again for your help

There is nothing missing. The "hole" is supposed to be there. It is for access to the coaxial MG and also to allow spent rounds to be ejected.
