[QUOTE="Hig, post: 2126777, member: 28422"] I have a SCAR 16 and am in the boat of SBR as well. From my perspective the standard benefits of the piston still stand. You still have to make sure that you have the correct gas port size and on the piston guns (such as the scar) all I have to do is swap out small set-screw like ports until I get the best operation. It is also nice when I put a can on the end of the rifle that all I have to do is flip the selector on the gas block and voila no gas in the face (well, it still wouldn't hit my face because of a much better design but w/e). This is not to discredit the DI guns in any way as they can be made to be reliable and function just find as SBR's..obviously. There are just the slight advantages of the purpose built piston guns. It's really up to you to determine if the cost is worth it. To further assist you I offer these emotional pulls as well.....Standard size SBR, DI rifle? That's nice. Folding stock, side charging, SBR that fits in your pocket? Well duh. [/QUOTE]
