This is just a heads up. My guys discovered this week that the pistons on our LWRC IC-A5’s were slowing eroding holes in the bottom of our PEQ-15’s. We discovered it after two went out the same day. Further inspection shows we have about 30 rifles affected. We’ll talk to L3 next week about it.

Woah, might be worth a crosspost in the piston system subforum, this has me reconsidering some polymer accessory placement.

If you had made a dovetail cut with an end mill, and fit a steel plate into the handguard there, it probably would've been fine (for a long time).
Too late now, of course.

LWRC is sending all new top rails that block the hole wear the gas is coming through. We also, got the PEQ's replaced.
