Just a reminder that Direct Injection destroyed the FAL, The M14, and BAR all which were short strokers. Everyone loves a direct injection into their holes
They had their time in history. Well maintained rifles at that. But many countries that have used them have replaced them with various piston action rifles
Not at all, just look at the OP pic. That's an actual gas operated system. Roller delayed is literally blowback with shit jammed in there to slow the bolt down a bit
It's crazy that the AR-15 is an utterly unique design and no other weapon in common knowledge has an operating system like it, yet it's one of the most common weapons in the world right now.
when you hit it out of the park the first time there isn't a time else to do. small incremental changes but the system itself is pretty solid. outside of some extreme cold circumstances, I guess but I don't think anyone is going to be fighting inna tundra anytime soon.
Yeah? It's a shit design, the AR15 is common only because the US Army was retarded enough to be an early adopter of it and also retarded enough not to ditch it when better options were made available.
Most actions exist for a reason and DI exists because it's extremly lite without the timing fuckery of delayed blowback systems.
If you are trying to make a gun very light DI is a good option.

roller gang doesn't give a fuck

Ackchyually, "direct impingement" is just a short stroke piston without a rod (Patent 2,951,424)
Wouldn't it be a long stroke piston
Nope, the bolt travel is longer than the "impingement"

>fighting inna tundra
Non-issue if your bolt carrier group (includes firing pin) and trigger (spring force) are in spec
Yeah? It's a shit design, the AR15 is common only because the US Army was retarded enough to be an early adopter of it and also retarded enough not to ditch it when better options were made available.
>It's a shit design
it's not though.
Rifle is fine
> Direct Impingement Weapons
Correct. That's why the AR-15 is the best rifle in the world with its piston bolt design.
>I am a gay nagger
I will directly impinge your mother.
why the fuck do you retards keep memeing about this pointless bullshit. they literally do the same fucking thing, there's zero difference in the end.
Arguing about gas systems for the nth time is srs bsns
That's cool
I'll keep using my regular ar though
ARs on Mars.
Cope, seethe, dilate.
The bolt is actually a piston.
Most actions exist for a reason and DI exists because it's extremly lite without the timing fuckery of delayed blowback systems.

Cope. Unless you have a mk18 sized sbr that you suppressed you are wrong and an idiot.
