The Rugged Suppressors Piston (brand part number OP005) uses a non-slotted design to create a full-circumference gas seal, drastically cutting gas blowback for a noticeably more enjoyable shooting experience behind a suppressor. Rugged machines the piston from 17-4 stainless steel and heat treats it for long-term durability, then finishes it in copper for corrosion resistance and easy visual identification among a lineup of similar parts. Threaded M16x1 RH, it’s built for shooters running that specific host thread, and Rugged notes that when this piston is used on a fixed-barrel platform like a carbine or subgun, the standard spring must be swapped for a Fixed Barrel Spacer to function correctly.
