·So if I have a fully assembled lower, how involved is swapping to a gas piston upper? Is like putting a normal direct impingement upper on?
I'm new to the AR field (read: I don't have one) and I was weighing my options. The Gas Piston uppers are out of my price range at the moment. I figure the cheapest way to get an AR is to buy the Lower Receiver, parts kit, grip/stock, etc and then get an assembled upper and put them together. For the first upper, I thought of getting just a DI upper and if it's easy to sway, then get a gas piston upper down the road. Is it as simple as popping a few pins and then putting the new gas piston upper on?
