I'm not very familiar with the company, but they seem to have a good reputation for quality, most of their models seem to have fairly clean designs, their gas system seems to be well executed, and their pricing doesn't seem to be unreasonable.
But, I've never handled, owned, or shot any of their guns. What kind of experiences have you guys had with these? |

I have a PWS x39 upper that I use. I like it. Dont have (unfortunately) a full rifle, but I have 100% confidence in that upper.
I reaaaallly want their 308 rifle. |

Love both of mine. They're basically identical. One in 300BO, the other 5.56.
 Eta: forgot to point out I only bought the uppers as I prefer Radian lowers. But they’ve been flawless. Great combo. |

I have been running PWS MK1s since 2011 at least once a week and used to run them 3-4 times a week.
They are not like most piston ARs which are muzzle heavy because the PWS piston design is very different, much lighter and neutrally balanced so they feel and weigh more like a DI AR I generally clean them every 6 months but have gone a year without cleaning, just forget as it does not need much upkeep. This encourages more training over a DI IMO at least for me For a while a friend would shoot mine want to buy it and I would sell it to them and buy a new one. So I was upgrading for almost nothing. I am down to 3 but generally only shoot my primary trainer a MK114 Mod 1 with a MK116 Mod2 upper on a Mod 1 lower as my SHTF reserve. They other just sits and is unfired. I do have DI guns and really like them but when you can shoot then just put a PWS in the safe with no cleaning it is really hard to want to bother with a DI, IMO |

I bought an PWS upper many years ago (It's a quad rail) to run with a suppressor because convinced my how wonderful piston guns were.
Unfortunately at that time, I did not know anyone with a suppressor or a piston gun to stop me. I learned my lesson. Avoid pistons, stick with uppers that use standard BCG's, barrels, and gas blocks. At least with my other bad gun purchases, I could get most of my money out of it. Between heavy buffers and modifying their system to bleed off the excessive gas I did eventually get it where it was bearable to shoot. Then it was only heavy and inaccurate! YMMV, Maybe they are better now. |

The piston system is said to reduce ejection port noise, reduce gas to the shooter's face, and keep the gun cleaner, and a lot of guys say the adjustable gas system is good for a variety of conditions. |

In general: Unsuppressed? Yes Suppressed? No, not even close As the brass case ejects, it sucks all the gas and carbon trapped in the can, back through the breech and ejection port.

Probably. Is it in any way actually clean? No, fuck no. You're still going to be scrubbing the fuck out of it when you're done. My SCAR17 still gets fucking filthy after a couple hundred rounds, my BRN-180 still needs to get scrubbed and hosed out after a couple hundred rounds, my AUG still needs to get hosed and scrubbed out after a couple hundred rounds, so on so forth. Unsuppressed they're great; you almost don't even need to clean them at all. Put a can on them though...still dirty. Honestly I've pretty much gone back to DI for suppressed use. I've got a couple rifles I'm going to run until failure to see how far I can push them. The only appreciable change over "stock" either has (both 16" midlength carbines) is they both have full chrome BCGs. |

I had the MK111 Pro upper and it was okay.
It had more recoil impulse than my DI AR's on the setting it needed to function well suppressed. It was just as dirty shooting suppressed as my DI guns. The kicker for me was the gas block started rusting within 6 months of owning it. |

I’ve run it on my buddies RR a bunch and it never skips a beat with cheap ammo. Anyways, it’s 16” long and I’m wanting a shorter one and will go PWS. |

My only other experience: years ago at NW multigun, PWS supplied a full auto SBR stage gun. Every shooter was given 60 rounds for the stage. 10-12 shooters per squad, 10 squads. That gun ran hard full auto continuously, ran like a raped ape. Very impressive.
Meanwhile on stage 1, the SCAR broke and they closed the stage after the first day. The FN guy couldn't get it running again. Nothing to do with PWS, but the contrast in reliability cured my SCAR fever. |

This is the PWS I’m waiting for.

The SCAR is one of the most durable and reliable platforms out there but don’t take my word for it, listen to CombatDiver and Henderson defense. |
