I am in the market for a higher end AR-10 and would like to here some suggestions. My main focus is on accuracy and I will also be shooting suppressed more times than not. Since I will be shooting suppressed I want to stay below 20" barrel length. I have looked hard at the GAP-10 and is where I am leaning now but before I spend the money I wanted to run it by you guys first. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated, thank you. I have also not ruled out a SCAR.
 
There are a lot of threads on this - I was recently reading a bunch of them - so your not getting an answer from me based on experience, just my reading... Seems folks like the LMT, DPMS POF etc. seems to be a lot of good .308 AR platform rifles. Do you have a price range? JP rifles is supposed to make some good ones as well...
 
I realize that the discussion of piston VS direct gas impingement is as much a part of this discussion as brand of rifle to buy. However, that discussion is not relevant if the buyer has his mind made up on a piston rifle. I guess that is like telling someone set on buying a Ford that they should consider Chevy. But that is a good place to start the inquiry.

1. Are you set on piston VS direct gas?
Yes: Then only look at gas guns.
No: Then you can look at buying anything.
