So the question is, have you seen or experience and actual parts breakage on a piston model AR? What part was it that broke? Any photos of the breakage would be fantastic.
Things like carrier tilt are not germane here unless they actually broke something as that issue seems to be fairly well remedied.
I'm wondering if descriptions of piston guns failing are due to other poor components (out of spec barrels, etc) making the gun fail or are actual breakage of parts?
