    Looks cool, you didn't get any of the DI 6940's or 6920's in yet did you? been waiting for you to get them in stock again and the cash is burning a hole in my pocket

    just curious, but what is the price point for the piston 6940P?

    I'm a complete piston gun noob. Don't the screws need to be staked on the part that looks like the gas key on a normal BCG?

    Looks nice. Noticed no staking on bolt carrier key and some type of screw on the upper by the cam pin bulge. I assume this screw holds a steel insert to reduce cam pin wear/drag in the upper. Do you have any plans on putting one of these through its paces and doing a T&E? So far, I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping Colt had something up its sleeve with its piston rifle that was a little less ordinary than the rest. What's your view so far?

    No on any other Colt's.

    Don't know what we are going to sell these for yet.

    Yes on a normal gas key, not on this one. The reason is because the gas key is so hard that you cannot do it.

    FSB setup wasn't as well thought out as simply using more rail.

    Correct on the screw.

    I am not a piston guru or even a fan, but this is the best piston setup I have seen to date.


    What I really like is that they use a standard bolt and bolt carrier. So if something breaks, you can basically go get any any BCG and use it (just need to install the gas key).

    Colt uses an H2 buffer (smart) and the piston system can easily be removed with no tools.

    I even like the roll mark on the lower.
