Sabre Defence has just upgraded three of our top carbines with a new state-of-the-art piston system that experts are already calling the best in the business. This historic breakthrough improved weapon function and reliability in dusty desert conditions, minimizing the need for cleaning due to carbon fouling. visit sabredefence.com to learn more.

  • @EricRmd no AK's are actually very very reliable. you can put it in mud, water, sand, ect. and it still works great.

  • very very helpfull thank very much!! thats a like and a fav and sub!!

  • yay

  • with DI you get a less clean upper which is not really to important if you properly maintain your rifle, with Piston you wont have an upper because the wear will make it last no time LOL

  • @Vercingetorix51 Oh yeah they got in trouble with the BATFE. Some company in Alabama bought Sabre Defense.

  • @fffreddie The results showed that the vibrations (harmonics) to the gas piston systems was higher than the gas inpingement systems. Since the tests were conducted for security the results are not published unless you have security clearance. The Colt AR-15 was chosen over all the rest. The engineering department went by the tests results over personal tastes. The same system is used to find wear on pump and motor shafts as well as other plant equipment. Oh eddy current was used on the barrels.

  • Okay what these videos don't explain is the unseen forces at work. The security department at the nuclear facility where I work decided to test several AR systems. Since all plant equipment must meet certain criteria they decided to put the weapons to the same test. The weapons were bought off the shelf so a 'special' one would muddy the tests. The weapons were x-rayed and a vibration test (harmonic) conducted prior to testing. After the security department tested the AR's they were tested again

  • @fffreddie I'm a fan of both systems because I believe they both have their benefits. I agree that the "problems" with DI are over exaggerated but so are the "problems" with piston guns. I own 4 piston rifles that I have put thousands of rounds through and because of a 20 dollar buffer tube I put in each of them I have no issues whatsoever. Plus its nice to have a adjustable gas port when using a suppressor. Its preference and there is no right or wrong choice.

  • @Cullenb11231 Or do the smart/right thing and stay with the direct impingement system designed by Eugene Stoner. I can't see spending hundreds of dollars to fix a nonexistent problem with his design. The one's that like the gas piston system can spend hundreds making it work efficiently. But you know you really can't fix the carrier tilt problem. You can only buffer the tilt by spreading the forces elsewhere. The forces are still there.
