I believe that the AA XLP was the answer to the piston system not fitting under most rail systems. I could be wrong, but I believe that is it.

AA has only named 3 handguards that will fit without modifications. OP I haven't heard anymore on Syrac Ordnance piston system, and if you are having a hard time contacting them is that the route you want to go if something goes wrong? |

These forums know that I'm no fan boy of AA. I like their stuff, but still have a chapped ass. The op asked for some advice, I gave it. What do you highly doubt? Have you looked into the AA XLP? It appears that it will be sold separately or as an option in a new kit. The XLP block is our extra low-profile gas block designed to fit under most rails. This gas block and selector is compatible with all other Adams Arms components including drive rod, spring & bushing and bolt carrier. You can now purchase this block solo to upgrade your existing Adams Arms kit, rifle, or upper. This gas block is installed using set screws and fits barrels that are .750" in diameter at the gas seat. The XLP gas block has 5 gas settings to choose from for the shooter to more finely tune their rifle. 100%/75%/50%/25%/0 This block and selector can replace your existing block and gas plug. Weight:.35lbs Compatible with the Adams Arms piston system only. THIS ITEM WILL SHIP AUGUST 1ST |

AA has already been on to list rails that the XLP will fit under without any modifications to the rail or piston system and its only 3 rails. Have you not seen them get hell for telling tall tales of their XLP fitting under all handguards to then most major handguards to now only 3 handguards without modifications; therefore, I highly doubt they are the answer to having a piston system fit under most handguards. |

AA Piston kit will not work with the KMR. The only one that is rumored to is the Syrac Piston System but no one can give an ETA even though I hear a few weeks 4mo ago.

Didn't Syrac tease about this system WAY back in '12? I'd say either it's not going to happen (since it hasn't yet) or they are now the only manufacturer to have a longer "release" time than Magpul!

I seem to remember Syrac talking about releasing stuff a couple of years ago as well. Isn't the owner one of the Adams brothers that left AA? I could be very wrong here, but it's just something that I thought I remembered.

This is what I remember reading also, he separated from AA... wondering if he was planning on the system being the same as the xlp but is having issues getting it to fit under a handguard. If it was possible I feel like it would be done. If you think about it, the only real rifle manufacuters piston system that works with other rails is the AA. Everything else is proprietary or the handguard cant be changed out. Kind of weird not a single company has dont it yet. AA had the balls to try but failed. I feel like syrac knows they have to nail it because theres no way a company that small could handle a fackup like the xlp gas system. |
