    With all due respect, did you fall and hit your head? I did not say anything about any benefits of the piston system other than a cooler bolt carrier and cleaner weapon (common sense and knowledge), and only because you asked. Outside of that, I don't give a damn.

    I want to know about the LYING COMPANIES! Who is LYING? Which companies are lying? What are they lying about? That has been my question since it the statement was posted and all I get from you is vapid rhetoric.

    You supported that statement throughout this thread and are hiding under your desk, as I have not seen a sensible response from you yet. You can't answer one question presented to you much less five or six.

    Damn I didn't want to get into this, I just wanted to know about the lying companies.

    I'm still wondering if there can be an analysis on mean-time to failure between the two systems. Perhaps the piston system in an AR is just too new to have that data. Oh well.
    It's time consuming and, more importantly, expensive to get real data about such stuff. I'd love to see it to but don't hold your breath. Gather what you can with a grain of cynical tech-thought from the random anecdotal examples floating around. They are just little machines after all, simple one's thankfully.

    Coleslaw, I'm not wed to any system - well, that's not true - the AR Platform is OUR platform so I guess I'm "wed" to it.

    Google LWRC and see what you find. Just like you've been requested to.

    I like gas piston systems. Period. And I like DI Systems. Period.

    Both offer advantages and they both have disadvantages.

    Thermocycling the critical part (extractor spring) MAY be an advantage - if only theoretically - with the SLIGHTLY cooler bolt assembly of the gas piston. Until someone can model and correlate then apply the measured boundary conditions, model and correlate we don't know explicitly. This is true for other perceived advantages and disadvantages of both systems.

    Purchase your passion and let sleeping dogs (of war) rest, brother.

    We should start a new thread.

    First off: Real world operators, and armorer support like IG, KevinB, and others here have really ruined GP operated ARs for me. Due to cracked receivers, bolt lug tension - and premature breakage, and other issues.

    I'd like to add that as much as I like the company (current management) markm is correct about LWRC.

    They have lied in the past. Common knowledge. However as LWRCi I don't think this is very much true, but if somebody can correct me that'd be appreciated.

    I wouldn't buy another LWRCi product. (Have owned multiple units in the past. Can't talk highly enough of their customer service.)

    I've come to trust the words of guys like Iraqgunz,KevinB, markm, and scottryan.

    However, I'd still like to know if he thinks that Ruger, H&K, Saber, Adams, POF, S&W, and others have lied, and what was lied about.

    If this information can be provided, I am just as curious.

    Oh - don't argue with 87GN. He knows what he is talking about.
    We miss you, AC.
    We miss you, ToddG.
