    They have to do something to be different. Kinda hard to sell a product that is exactly the same as every other one on the market.

    Like I have said many times before. The AR-15 DI system is a near perfect system from an engineering perspective. Manufacturers instead of finding ways to improve quality and decrease cost to make a profit, either lower quality or create a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. They know that there are too many people out there who do not know any better and will buy the latest "enhancement" or "tacticool" feature.

    ok. so a new product is released and everyone craps on it with out even trying it or hearing an actual review. very nice. I fear change.

    it is heavier than a standard carrier so it will slow dwell time, like a heavy buffer does. the PWS carrier = 9.9oz, m16 carrier is 9.46oz, colt carrier is 8.87oz.

    for reference the H buffer is .87oz more than standard buffer. some guns will run better with a heavy buffer or carrier.

    also isonite is a very strong treatment. it increases resistance to heat, abrasion and seizure. resistance to pitting is 50-60% better than untreated. also material strength and stiffness are increased. overall improved durability.

    so with these benefits why talk bad about something you have no experience with? there are alot of (different) parts that were made for guns that i like alot. such as the spikes st-t2 buffer, magpul AFG, and polymer, nylon 6 (glock frames).

    Durability/strength/stiffness has not been an issue with the standard mil spec type carrier. Have you ever seen one fail?

    Somebody shut-up and just test the damn thing. Everything else is conjecture. This is turning into a thread from Barfcom.

    have you ever been out on the range, blasting away, and stopped and thought to yourself, "you know... my carrier is lacking. i wish somebody would improve it."

    OR maybe we just have eyes to see retardation when we see it.

    have you not noticed that when TRUE innovation appears on this website, it's well received? that guy with the mag-release-bolt-hold-open thing came on here with his "battery assist device" and was laughed off the board. but when he came back with something that WAS potentially useful, everyone gave encouragement. for example.

    but what the hell does any of this have to do with TOS?

    Look beyond the "sand cuts" to see a bolt carrier with a slick coating for $99. That's cheeper than FailZero!
