Hey guys Im looking for some info on Piston ARs. I have an AR with a bull barrel that is front heavy, I also have a can, so a piston might be better for suppressed shooting. I shoot 55gr to 69 gr ammo through this gun & it is my go to gun, so reliability is a plus.
Im looking for some info on the Ruger 556, Stag Arms Mod 8, and a cmmg rifle with gas piston.
The ruger has a govt profile barrel with a 1:9 in twist. I shoot 55gr when just plinking so the 1:9 is a plus there.
The cmmg only has a 1:7 twist, not preferred for 55gr ammo and only the m4 profile (I just dont like the 203 cut without a 203 mounted, which I dont have).
Stag is in the same boat as cmmg as far as options.
The other option is to ditch my heavy upper and get a cmmg upper with gas piston.
