No op rod return springs to break like on the short stroke systems, the springs on the short stroke are over the hottest part of the barrel.
No spring pressure on the barrel from the op rod being pushed forward.
Our system has 5 ports and an "off"
A long stroke is a "push" system not an "impact" system.
Our system can be cleaned from the front by removing 1 pin, you have to remove the float tubes to clean most short stroke systems.
99% of all short stroke systems were copied from the Armalite AR180
my original design for the mono-chassis is based on the AK the LS system is modified to work in an AR15 without modifying the receiver. |

Hmm I've got an XT with piston on order but can't decide about the pinned key vs. integral...
Is the extra $100 for the integral key worth it (anyone)? What would be the consequences of a broken key, piston parts coming at your face?

Do you still need to make the one piece bolts or are they finished also?
