I asked him without gas to face problems, would I be getting greater reliability / less recoil / other advantages to any non-trivial extent if I had them decrease the port size. His answer was no to everything - which could have been what he was told to say by corporate DD - as they just hadn't seen any systematic problems with the larger port size, over years of selling countless thousands. But they'd happily replace mine if it tickled my fancy. And no particular reason they're making them with smaller gas ports now.
Good customer service I guess, but I doubt I'm getting the full story from them...
