Retrofit Piston Kits
The direct impingement system was the operating system developed for the earliest AR-15 rifles, and it remains the standard over 50 years later. After you fire a bullet, this system takes the gases unleashed by that action and shoves them from the front to the back of the barrel. Along the way, it triggers the mechanisms that expel the spent case and ready the next round.
The direct impingement system seems all well and good, but it is not always efficient. Many rifle fans have found great satisfaction in using AR-15 gas piston kits to convert their operating system. Under the piston system, the gases do not waft up and down the barrel, but push a piston located near the barrel's end to cycle the round. The result is a rifle that does not require as much cleaning or get as hot to the touch. Better still, it is more efficient.
