Quote History Quoted:
The Aug had been a huge success as has the FAL etc etc
Also the ar18 operating system has been built into a myriad of different adopted weapons since then.
Like I said I'm a tavor guy through and through but I'm not going to sit here and say that it's long stroke or nothing in terms of Pistons.

Quoted:
Was the AR-18/180 a short stroke or long stroke action?
Did it fail because of that...?
Just sayin'...

True on long vs. short stroke discussion. My LWRC M6A2-S is a short stroke design, and it is probably one of the best AR's out there. It's probably more an issue of the rifle quality that's built around either piston stroke design rather than the stroke design itself.
On Kel-Tec, I've owned a P11 compact 9mm shortly after they were introduced in the mid-90's and carried to this day as a concealed carry gun. Two-a-year qualifying and just fun shooting with it at my house in the sticks all these years, and it has been totally reliable. I also own a Kel-Tec P11 5.56. This almost ridiculous, inexpensive pistol has also been totally reliable. I may be in the market for the .308 RFB in the future, as I've gotten to play with a friend's RFB and am fairly impressed. I doubt I'd be too fearful of the new RDB...but already having the AUG and Tavor, I'd be better served by going with the .308 RFB.
