    I agree. I never trust a reviewer who is always positive. Either they are too easy to please or they could be a shill.

    especially when he spends minutes stating he is not a shill :P Chad, you know you are number one handsome. But, like the song says... if you can't be with the one you love honey, love the one you're with :) :)

    Clandestine,

    Will a DI 10" barrel 5.56 pistol have problems cycling with a suppressor on it?

    Probably an ignorant question but my research is leading me to ask it

    If the D.I. gun was overgassed, yes it can have problems cycling. A piston gun can have problems too if too overgassed before a can is installed. Overgassed causes a gun to have either too much bolt velocity or it behaves like an undergassed gun and won't extract. This happens because the casing pressure it too high when the bolt tries to unlock.

    An undergassed 10" that won't cycle without a can will cycle with a can.
