KAC PDW Anyone ever see the internals of this sweet gun?

Imagine a Stapler...

Pistons are one piece - no spring on them.

I still can't picture it. How is the breech locked? I swear, I won't tell Norinco.

probably a rotating bolt, either an AR15 style multi-lug or a 2-3 lug like the AK47/SIG550 type.

That is pretty much the standard operating system rifles are built off of these days. The rotating action that breaks the gas seal of the chamber stops the need to use fluted chambers, as well as puts the pressure equally around the chamber and not in small concentrated spots that can wear out quickly (AKA, HK G3/MP5 series that you need to change roller sizes as it wears out over time)

Hey kevin, if the piston's don't have springs what returns them. as well is there a spring above the dual pistons and is it attached to the bolt carrier. Thanks Mark

oh, and yes I meant the triple tap. Very pricey. But very sweet.

The operating system has a central spring running over the center of the weapon, the piston rods are returned by the bolt. Bolt is AK pattern.

We have a major redesign of the system underway to a Stoner type bolt.

That's interesting. What benefits does the radially lugged bolt offer over an AK-type?

Is Mr. Olson assigned to this project as well?

Doug Olson left us a few years ago to work for Wilson Combat, and he now works for Surefire.
