    HK gas piston, the part that takes the pressure from the barrel and turns it into movement. The maintenance book advises to oil it but I am not so sure, it seems to do just the same no matter how it looks. It takes some serious carbon caking on it but it does not seem to have any effect at all on it

    I've read up a lot on how the LMT's and LWRC's stack up against each other but does anyone have any experience with Patriot Ordnance Factory (http://www.pof-usa.com/)? If so how do these compare? Thanks in advance, Drew

    differerence between gas and piston AR uppers

    I'm building another upper but up until recently had never seen the piston style uppers. Can I build this style with a regular bare upper and lower, or are the parts specific to the piston type? And is there anywhere I can get schematics or detailed info on them?
