hey guys, to provide a bit more info, my g&g socom 16 max uses a standard AEG piston and (and what I think to be standard) piston head, which suggests that those are just standard parts in all the m14 variants. I replaced my piston with a CA steel rack piston and the piston head fit on just fine, my piston from the factory was AoE corrected already, manufactured with one less tooth at the back. Though to be honest, I did not use my calipers to measure the piston head to be absolutely sure of the compatibility.

While I haven't seen an AUG nozzle/cylinder head up close, I'm pretty sure that if it's an aug nozzle, the aug compatible cylinder head will probably work just as well, seeing that the piston head is standard diameter. The nozzle tip on the cylinder head is very long, so I'm not sure if an AUG one is similar or not.

The only part that I know to be proprietary for sure is the tappet.

Aside from that, since I have the max version, the piston head and cylinder head are the upgraded G&G parts, there's really no need to upgrade them. But if and when I ever have to replace the tappet or nozzle, I might start getting concerned.
