Adams Arms Gas Piston Animation with Narration

how does this system affect accuracy?

Until you own one, you will not see or feel the real difference. It is amazing and their rifles are rock solid tack drivers. one inch at 100 yards with Wolf ammo, NO BS!!! 200 yards is 1.5 moa at the most. It feels and sounds like shooting a nail gun, that's the best way to describe it. Every Pasco county sheriff officer now has one issued to him. There is Zero crud in the bolt area after many trips to the range. I will put my AR against any M4 Carbine made. I will post my next target results after I go to the range and test out the Hornady Match ammo I now have. Adams builds these for war, not to be a pretty thing that sits on a mantel. Seems like most people want looks too much anymore. I have put mine through many trips and lots of rounds without one miss-feed or problem. People who stick with the old direct gas systems are very foolish in my opinion, seems the lessons of war keep getting ignored. Nobody likes cleaning a gun, especially when your being shot at lol. If Adams paid some popular former spec op guy to push these everyone would want one, but the owner doesn't need too, he lets the gun speak for itself and they keep expanding. Do yourself a favor and buy one, they are great guns made by good people who take pride in their work and stand behind everything.

I don´t understand how it was designed that way to begin with, this is not rocket science.

Why the AR-15 has no piston? I mean, with this system it's obvious that the bolt enter in direct contact with gas, and it's obvious that is not a good thing!

I'm so glad that a piston system has been invented. I mean decades of battle proven gas impingement rifles were so archaic, man we had it all wrong.

thanks for the simple explanation of difference

I'm certainly no firearms expert but a I have a quick question: 0:56 "All of the hot gases are redirected forward..." Why not shoot the gases up? I don't know how much force would be left in the gas after pushing that bolt back, but if the gas is shot upwards, could that not help combat muzzle rise?
I mean, the gun already has enough backwards kick, yeah? Not like it needs more of that.

Great video guys. Quick and simple explanation.

That looks nice it' sthat AR???

So kind of like the AK47.

would this work for an armalite ar-10?

fucken awesome demonstration...

What size buffer should I be using for the Adams arms system?

do you need a special bolt and upper receiver too adapt that system?

"extensive cleaning and maintenance" aka spraying everything down with brake cleaner, wiping off the BCG every 2000 rds or so, and adding a drop of oil in the bolt sealing ring hole. Oh and dragging a boresnake or cleaning rod down the barrel.

So like an AK47

I wish mine worked that well. It is back at the company for the second time. Hope it gets fixed.

Uhh... sorry to interrupt all the arguing, but I would like to say that I found this video informative. I am building my first AR-15, and I plan to use a pistol system because I would like less overall maintenance and cleaning. I, in no way, am suggesting that it is better than DI, as I have experience with neither system. My opinion is my own, and has nothing to do with Navy SEALs.

but you still got to clean the front end!!! and it heavy
