Whats the best piston for my gun?

i have a ca m15a2 using an m120 spring and i wore out the polycarbonite piston that came stock with it, whats the best part i can buy for my gun. i saw that deep fire offeres a nylon piston that has all metal teeth that are coated with titanium this seems pretty good, also i saw an aluminum piston that looked pretty durable, which one has the best durability over a long period of time.

if you get a super beefy piston with adamantium teeth etc. it will just shift the wear to a different part of your gun IE the gears which are more expensive.

those metal piston might be tough, but like poisonfree said, you'll run the risk of stripping your gears

Yeah, go with a alum. piston if you would rather replace your gb instead. The weight of an alum. piston slammin will crack the front of your gb soon. I have gaurder, systema, area 1000 and stock TM pistons in my guns and haven't had a prob yet. So take your pick.

Area 1000 piston = hard as hell and 10 dollars.
