> FYI, the Armalite rifle system sucks ass because it blows hot carbon back into the chamber, which will then jam the rifle. Anyone who's ever had to fire hundreds of rounds in a day will tell you this. The enthusiasts who think it's a lifestyle swear by how it's the perfected weapon system.

NGL you had me until here. Not that I give a shit about DI vs piston. That fact that you're spouting this gunlore is laughable. You can find MANY torture tests of EITHER system. Both systems have their pros and cons. "jamming up" is not one of them.

Any religious proponent of one system over another can't be taken seriously. It's the application and usage that matters. Guns are tools, use the best one for the job and don't make outlandish claims.

My opinion comes after firing thousands upon thousands of rounds thru M4 rifles. The carbon in the gas builds up in the internals, which then gums up the extractor which causes jamming. Nothing controversial about this.

You think you're the only one with high round count experience? Why then are you the only one claiming DI is an issue? Because it's some bullshit people say to sound smart.

Uh huh. Why do we need to clean the barrels after firing? To clean out the carbon that was deposited when the hot gas was being expelled from the firing chamber. The hot gas tube takes unfiltered gas and pushes it directly into the firing chamber, thus depositing carbon on the bolt assembly. When enough carbon builds up, the weapon begins to jam.


That's about as easy as I can make it. If you don't understand that, then I don't know what I can say.

Yes you've learned about fouling. You still don't understand that it doesn't matter.

You seem to not understand basic engineering. If the gas piston modifications were cheaper than the standard gas impingement tube, then you would be claiming that it's a superior system. AR15 fans don't want to hear that there may be anything wrong with the design of the system.
