I'm just wondering is the gas piston system for AR-15 mature enough? Seem to have problem with carrier tilts.

No issues with my Adams Arms conversion. The early units came with a bolt carrier key replacement, which had some "tilt" issues. Most if not all mfg's new units come with a complete 1 piece key/carrier.
Thanks for moving this thread, i couldn't figure out how to move or remove this myself.
I have 2 x Osprey's GP mid-length and 2 x TNW's carbine length systems.
Both systems are retro fit so you don't need a special bulky gas block, just use your existing front sight base or gas block.
They all run like a champs, making your AR a low maintenance rifle .
TNW comes with a gas key replacement strike face and I didn't like it so I purchased a one piece piston bolt carrier.
My dad has a Ruger SR 556, the buffer tube is scratched up really bad, i figure it's due to carrier tilt, he send it to Ruger for repair. It really made me question the overall matureness of piston ARs.
