I have watched the videos online on how to take the piston assembly apart on the LWRCs but my UCIW upper just does not have enough room to separate and remove like the longer piston gas systems.  Anyone know the trick?

I can't speak to the UCIW, but on the M6 and M6AK it's a matter of getting the intermediate rod clear of the piston cup by pushing it back into the receiver while pushing the cup forward:  you need every fraction of an inch you can get.

Been trying that technique with no luck.  Seems it is to short to get it separated enough to get that fraction of an inch.

I'd like to know myself.  I've tried everything and can't get it disassemble.
