They should just change the gas system. Replace the gas tube with a gas piston. That will keep it a lot cleaner and more reliable.

If they did that they'd end up with Daewoo K2. About 95% of the lower receiver group is interchangeable with the M-16/AR-15 and uses a AK-47 style gas system and an FN-FAL style folding buttstock. In all, a very reliable and robust weapon.

I see now that someone has come out with an ar variant that has a gas piston. (Can’t remember the model)

I’m still waiting for someone to come out with a conversion kit.

Of course, if I get into ar’s before someone makes a conversion kit, I just might...
