Lots of overgassed guns out there, adding a can raises the gas pressure.

Safety - not with a purpose built can rated for the use

Function, yes maybe. Easy fix, heavier buffer and/or turn down the gas. BRT ez-tune gas tube is an easy solution.

Integrity - not if you address the buffer and gas port.
