Firing m1a without stripper clip guide.

Does is it make a difference if I replace the stripper clip guide on m1a when shooting the rifle?

I just took the the Sadlak mount off of my m1a scout. I’m planning to use that scope on another rifle and use the m1a scout without optics. I’m going to sell the sadlak at some point. When I took the mount off I realized I had lost the stripper clip guide. My question is does it matter if I fire the gun with out the stripper clip guide? More specifically does the stripper clip guide keep shells from being thrown back your face at all? Thanks in advance and above all else stay classy.
 
I'd shoot it and find out.

I haven't had a reason to take mine off and I do use the stripper clip guide when I am bench shooting. I haven't noticed any deflection of the case from it or any brass markings either.

Just wear some eye pro so you don't jam a case in your eye.

Praying for you brother.
