I will own your namesake upper one day.
It has to be my favorite SBR upper.
I hope Paul keeps making them.
i like dissys .. i put together three of them .
i like the rifle gas system the best.
just finished a Delton rifle gas dissy.. sweet shooter !
other way around .. rifle gas is original .. think colt model 605.
anything with gas block under the hood is called a mock dissipator.
bushmaster coined the term "dissipator"
the problems that used to plague the older rifle gas systems has been solved .
theres nothings wrong with a carbine or middy gas dissipator.
most prefer those.
i personally like the rifle gas better.
Ten years or so ago, the dissipator filled the need for the general public having extended arm length requirements. From an economic view, for folks who don't want to or can't pony up the chedder for a 12" rail, the dissipator fills that niche. No knock on anyone who chooses to use one, but with the advent of various quality rail systems, which are constantly evolving, the dissipator is simply obsolete from a practical stand point.
