You could call me a gun nut, but it helps that the Navy pays me to do it too. For AR's I have a regular DI AR that I built (CMMG A3 upper/AP lower) and one I built around an LWRC upper. To be quite honest I like the regular AR better. Its lighter, better balanced, cheaper, and has been 100% reliable so far. I drank the piston kool aid and its not that sweet IMO. If you give your gun the slightest modicum of care youll be fine. If youre shooting auto or suppressed then maybe a piston might be worth it. For the price of my LWRC gun I could have built another DI gun, got a case of ammo and taken another class and been way better off.
