I think Clandestine wants to do something sinister to my DD rail.
He told me he'd use mine as a butt-scratching tool, or was that the rail on my piston gun??

UTG wasn't my best choice, but I was young and not so well informed. The price and the set-screws are what got to me with DD, I just had to have the uninterrupted rail though.
So you like the set screws?
No.... please don't tell me that. He's an APG member... and helped design the HK45 with Ken Hackathorn... is it true? lol

It used to be on his website about his preference for Miltec. The Piston thing came about when he was assisting HK witht the. 45, they had recently released the 416 and he was pushing the platform. This was before he went to DD.
So at the end of the day he's just a pitchman. *sigh* oh well.
I would not personally come to that decision. Even though hes a paid rep for these companies I believe him to be an honest man who simply stands behind solid products/manufacturers. While I strongly disagree with his AR Piston Philsophies, and his once public recomendation for Miltec (Now recanted on his Website), I will continue to give him the benefit of a doubt. He used to use Miltec as a "Wet" application, not "Dry" as Marketed. Perhaps he has changed his tune.
As you can see the "Weapons Lube" is under reconstruction:
