He may not be saying it but I will:
ALL of the retrofit piston guns are for the FULL retard market...
MK18, I understand where you are coming from. However, piston guns are designed for a niche market much like the HK416C and SCW. Piston guns do have advantages in weapons that have super short barrel lengths or when a suppressor is involved. They do have a tendency to have a fairly different recoil impulse (varying on design) and can be much heavier than your standard direct impingement design. The fact is however, that just because they do not fit your needs, does not mean they are for the retard market. I don't see either of us driving around town in a passenger bus, but they serve an undeniable purpose (The transit of large numbers of people). Piston guns and PDWs aren't much different.
