You might consider a Huldra upper. It's based on the Adams Arms piston design. Stewart Mills (Mills Fleet Farm) is a shooting buddy of mine and that's his brand. I've seen Huldras in action and they are impressive. Very high quality, very well made. Huldra Arms - AR Gas Piston Rifles . A Huldra would be my first choice if I were interested in a gas piston rifle. Nothing wrong with LMT, though. Likewise, LWRC makes an excellent gas piston rifle.

Yeah, I agree. Anything that needs Q-tips on my rifles gets blasted with brake cleaner instead.

It's the smell of my youth, though. I stick with Hoppe's #9 because of the smell..
