I am wanting to put together a 5.56 PDW. I need an upper that will fit a milspec AR lower that I have already registered. What I am looking for is 7-8 inch barreled upper, but is designed and has a collapsible two rail stock like an MP5. It would need to be a gas piston system to eliminate the buffer tube. I know there are uppers that use impingement systems but have a shortened tube to allow a collapsible stock, but am hoping to find a receiver that will meet my above specs. I do realize there would need to be some significant mods to a standard upper to accommodate the retracted rails so maybe that's why I have had no luck so far finding what I am looking for. A complete upper would be nice, but am willing to build it if I can find just the upper receiver and stock. Any help or guidance on this would be appreciated.

I think the SB Tactical AR brace is the closest to what youre talking about. IIRC the buffer tube is shorter than a pistol buffer tube

I dont know of any Piston gas systems for the AR that dont use a lower with a buffer tube or use a short carrier like the Sig Rattler or FN Scar

All in all, the Sig Rattler (or what ever the eff they call it) is pretty much what youre discribing

Are you looking for something like this. I have done a 300 black out with one of these stocks. You use the standard gas system. If you want you could get a piston/ gas system for your upper.
