PISTON-DRIVEN AR-15
DIRECT IMPINGEMENT AR-15
Direct impingement AR-15’s utilize a gas operation which directs gas from a fired cartridge indirectly (through the barrel, gas block, and then through a gas tube) into the bolt carrier or slide assembly, which in turn cycles the action. Because gas from the fired cartridge is redirected into the action, internal components are subject to high heat and fouling, requiring regular cleaning and a cool down period before the bolt carrier can be removed from the rifle.
In a traditional AR-15’s piston system, gas pressure is used to drive a metal rod (the piston) to the rear of the gun, which then strikes a lug on the top of the carrier in order to cycle the action. Piston-driven rifles remain cooler during use and internal components remain clean for a longer period of time with little to no gas being vented into the action.
The VK-1 Difference:
The VK-1 uses a revolutionary low-profile piston system design featuring optimum gas port sizing and a piston assembly featuring a unique cup and spigot design that improves the gas seal and overall efficiency of the gas system. The VK-1 also includes a staged gas bleed system with two sets of exhaust ports at precisely determined distances to reduce the inertia of the operating rod once it nears the end of its stroke. The reimagined VK-1 Short Stroke Piston System includes a Fully-Supported One-Piece Op Rod and removable gas block and matches the footprint and weight of a standard DI AR-15 while providing the benefits of a piston driven system.
