Watch this:
Based on these, unless you absolutely have to have a piston driven AR, 99.9% of people on here can get by with a direct impingement because they will never be in a situation where their guns are driven as they in the article and video. |
Nice review.
Jon Doe can go into cabela's and get a $800 M&P AR and be perfectly happy.
I shoot DPMS, which isn't exactly high dollar either.
With that being said, I would purchase a piston gun as my next AR.
