Tomorrow I'm supposed to get the barrel for my Universal .30 carbine. The piston stop was soft enough that the piston displaced enough metal to interfere with the bolt closing all the way. The solution is to remove some of the old metal and silver solder a piece of hardened tool steel in its place. I tried soldering it in once myself but it only lasted about 40 rounds before popping loose. The good part is that there was no sign of indentation on the replacement part or the piston. This time a professional soldered it in for me. I have some confidence that it'll be OK this time.
I wonder if this carbine is also considered eeevil by the anti-liberty idiots.
