My piston upper is throwing LC 193 and LC 855 off the leading corner of the deflector to 1:30 (forward). Brass has a line or light dent between 1/4 and 1/3 up from the base (body section only).
I am going with their low mass carrier and for that reason do not want to add buffer weight (defeats the purpose). I'm running a 1 oz buffer (empty C).
Barrel is a 16" Rainier Arms select MEDCON, mid length.
I am shooting with the 5 position (Off, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, Full) gas valve at 1/2. At 1/4 it does not reliably function and never locks back on the LRHO. This and the fact that is is a middy makes me assume it is probably not overgassed in the classic sense.
