Let's not forget that Eugene Stoner also designed the AR-18, a short stroke piston rifle, after designing the AR-15.
I think we often get caught up in a team mentality when talking about these things, but the reality is that both are different means to accomplish the same task. I'm not on team piston or team DI. I'm on team quality and if someone is in the market for a <$1000 AR, they should give this rifle some consideration. I've had good experience with my PWS and find it a pleasure to shoot.

If you want to try one of their piston guns let me know. I'm pretty close to TTC.

Different strokes for different folks, no pun intended. I own both piston and DI. Both run fine. PWS makes a good rifle, piston, DI, or otherwise.
The determining factor seems to be manufacturing quality more than operating system. There are piss poor DI and Piston ARs. There are also great DI and Piston ARs. You get what you pay for. Most people won't shoot their rifles enough to know regardless.

Saw this while browsing SHOT Show coverage. Looks like PWS has released a budget version of their long-stroke piston rifles, coming in at $995 MSRP. Uppers going for about $700 MSRP. Looks like a really solid option for someone looking at a good mid tier AR. Link below:

I hate you...
That's a freaking steal.

I like the PWS ratcheting castle nut. Easy to install, won't back out, and easy to remove if needed.

Thanks for the link. Looks like they updated the page.
I like this configuration the most of any 320 on the market right now. I'd probably ditch the VTAC sights, but otherwise I don't know what else I'd do to it besides add a rds.

Anybody have any info on this thing?
Sig just announced a revamped VTAC P320 at SHOT Show. It removes the slide "speed holes" seen on the prior generation and offers an optic cut which doesn't remove the rear sight. Both are huge pluses in my book, especially as I consider getting into Optic devisions.
Oh and I think it looks pretty cool, too.
Problem is I can't find any damn info on this thing besides an article or two and a video from Larry Vickers. No SKU. No mention on Sig's website as of this post. I don't even know MRSP, but I'd be surprised if it was drastically different than the last gen.
Thanks.

NJ Dems: "Large Capacity Magazines exist only to kill as many people as possible in a short period of time."
Also NJ Dems: "Only the racist/tyrannical cops who kill innocent black people at will are qualified to have Large Capacity Magazines. Also the government is currently run by literally Hitler."
Wut...

6 hours ago, Ray Ray said:The G45 is topped with a G19 slide.
So it's faster out of a holster?
More suitable with comps?
Less reciprocating mass?
What's the benefit versus a 17 sized slide?
-
So maybe I missed the memo, but what does the G45 do that a G17 Gen 5 MOS doesn't?

Nice. Based on flashlight position, I’m guessing you shoot lefty....Yup! Definitely a wrong-handed shooter. It's a bit of an advantage with an AR, though. I think Eugene was a closet lefty.

Y'all are hilarious.
Show up or don't. If you're triggered by the venue, maybe you should just come to terms with and embrace your inner millennial.

I've been using the MSA Supreme Pro X's for a while now and it's really hard to go back to anything else. Buy once. Cry Once.

Seriously. People act like loaded mags give off a special scent that LEOs can smell from miles away. If you're having your range bag searched, you dun messed up.This. All day.

It's legal. If people want to be cautious that's fine but I'll still make fun of you at the range for it.

There sure are a lot of people who care so little about Prince's death that they need to be sure everyone else is aware how little they care.
Funny how that works.
