In the early 2000s, AR15.com moderators ruthlessly enforced the usage of of the phrase "R-DIAS" due to the 30 year old Shotgun News ATF entrapment ad (anyone ever wonder why despite SGN having a no conversions policy, they let this ad run)? People who bought this part, would be raided within 4 days and have their all their shit seized under asset forfeiture. So differentiate between early legal pre-81 sears, post-81 registered sears, and 'illegal' unregistered post-86 sears, ARFCOM mods were needlessly assholish about making fucking sure you added that stupid R to everything. People were literally banned for not adding that stupid R to posts or threads about DIASs.
So I took the R out of everything. Because FOSScad is about being unregistered.
Note: I was going to be cute and call it a U-DIAS (for unregistered), but then I'd be just as bad as ARFCOM mods. A DIAS is a DIAS is a fucking DIAS.
