LOL... it's definitely not self cleaning. Pistons claiming they run cleaner is a myth.

Hahahaha!! Surely you jest..

That's what the documentation states for the gas block at least.

Put a few thousand rounds down range with it... and not clean it because it's "cleaner" I've got a seized up upper I can show you if you prefer not to see the results.

Granted not everyone can afford to shooting a few thousand rounds a session and have access to F/A. It will simply take longer for you to figure this out. I just don't want people to believe this nonsense that pistons are cleaner. Pistons simply deposit the dirt elsewhere... and contrary to popular belief, there is still some blow back into the BCG area. I think Short Stroke Pistons on the AR platform are pure garbage. They're heavier, more expensive, and generally have a weird (snapper) recoil impulse to me. Of course there are other documented issues with pistons.

I've had 3 AA kits and tried to give them a fair shake, but I can't recommend them over a DI AR. The only piston that piques my interest is the PWS as it's a long stroke piston.

Your mileage may vary.

I'm not sure how the hell the gas block even could be cleaned without removing the handguard and piston...... However, it may be possible to clean the inside of it by removing the gas adjustment knob.

This is the rifle I won from the Gunstruction competition. They had it receiver accurized by CIV Tactical. It's the first piston rifle I've fired. It does fire very smooth and there isn't much in the way of recoil. This also has the Adams Arms low mass bolt carrier in it. I still have a lot more testing I will do with it then I'm sure I will know more.

Granted, I clean the rifle. It's the gas block that supposedly doesn't need cleaning. If you have a low profile gas block under a free float hand guard there isn't really any way to clean that gas block either. How much grit gets built up in the gas tube and gas block?

Will, I'm gonna keep this thread back on Found parts, deals, ect.

Feel free to start a new Piston Thread if you want to discuss further, or post results after you get some more shooting down range with your rig.
