Dedicated technology is my vote for a custom ar15 otherewise unless you want a piston driven I will stick to olympic arms.

Adam Arms and sexy piston uppers. :tup:

Now you are being trendy! Why waste money on that?


Trendy?? Abviously you have not spent much time on the buisness end of a carbine to truly understand the benefits of a piston system and a appreciation  for a company (Adam Arms) that has nearly perfected it and builds a superior piston system. Some people enjoy carbon build up on their bolts and bolt carriers, some of us don't have to worry about it. :chuckle:

What exactly is the benefit of a piston for a coyote rifle?
My chromed bcg has little to no carbon build up.
Maybe it's the ammo you're shooting...try some better ammo and you'll have less carbon build up.
BTW, I don't plan on ever being on the 'business end of a carbine'...that's for the other dumb sucker.

Like I said, not much time on the buisness end of a carbine, some people's children. You are correct, by the wording of your post. You will never come close to firing enough rounds out of a AR in your lifetime to justify the use of a piston system. :chuckle: Must suck, I USE MY CHIT!!

Not everyone is as impressed with Adams as you are.....http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_3_124/374524_Adams_Arms_Gas_Piston_System.html

I have read reports of carrier tilt and gouging of the buffer tubes in your system in 150 rounds. How many rounds have you put through your system in testing? How bad does the gouging get before it stabilizes?

I'll stick with my DI and pinned gas block...If it's ever used for 'business', I'll know it's proven.
I still think if you shot better ammo, there would be no need.
Try something other than Wolf.

 :yeah: That sums it up pretty well!

Piston systems are pretty well known for carrier tilt, causing premature wear on the upper receiver but then you already knew that...right?

If you are having issues with carbon in a direct impingement AR I can only assume you never learned to clean one properly, pretty simple gun that has been around for a long time now. Just about the easiest gun I own to clean and maintain, if you are having problems maybe you should look for some instructional youtube videos or something.  :tup:

I think I have had this Argument before... if you want an easy gun to clean get an AK, if you want to kill chit passed 200 yds get an AR.  :twocents:

My AK is really the one that carbons up! The plus side is that I don't really know if it ever actually needs to be cleaned  :chuckle: :chuckle: I do it anyway but I think I could leave it in a river for a few years without impacting the rifle's function.

Maybe you should do a bit more shooting and a little less reading. Gotta love the " Internet expert " types. :chuckle: I wouldn't even know what a box of Wolf ammo looks like. Remember I'm one of the factory ammo is for sissy's type but then again you already know that.

You read like the type of guy to hang Airsoft furniture on his AR, the type of guy that wants to look cool but save a buck. Piston systems are to steep such types. Always a excuse not to spend the extra $$$$ though. Suppose you shoot a Tikka also. HA HA HA HA HA!
