    Piston might be objectively superior for reliability, but if you want one get a piston design built from the ground up, not one shoe-horned on top of a DI rifle. I've seen heaps of reports of problems of things like carrier tilt etc on the band-aid piston kits for the AR platform. It's not designed for it.
