I just want to verify that from what I am hearing is true.

I am under the belief that the companies the currently make the Gas Piston System such as PWS are for any and all AR15 platforms? If so then I can convert any AR15 to use the Gas Piston System?

Pretty much correct. The only caveat being whether the manufacturer sends you a kit for DIY or it needs to be assembled by the maker of the system.

The answer is generally yes. However you must check the existing barrel diameter and make sure it is compatible with the kit. Also some kits come with modified handguards (e.g. Adams) so you need to check whether your existing handguard is compatible with the kit. Good to check also whether the new gas block has the proper height and rail for M4 type BUIS. Lots of stuff to check out before you buy.
