which do you prefer, why, and i havent decided on piston or not but do any of the ones listed have any advantage in the piston design?

thanks for the reply. lmt is the one at the top of my list i havent really considered h&k. i know i dont need a piston just been thinkin bout it. have you heard anything good or bad about the sig 516?
A lot of the current barrels are of a larger profile. With the military upgrading the M4 to SOCOM specs you will see a large number of the carbines with thicker barrels. The LMT barrels are thicker than a standard M4 profile but there is also a very, very noticable diffrence in the piston barrel. I like the heavy barrel but my wife is just the oposit and we built hers with a pencil barrel.yea i have shot several of the piston type and didnt really like the way they were balanced on the front end. i wasnt sure if it was from thepiston stuff or the barrel. the barrels look pretty thick on them. with the way the gun was balanced i would have much rather just been shooting my m1a
its not balanced at all! A lot of guys are sending there barrels to marvin pitts at adco so he can dimple them to loose the weight. I just traded away my piston barrel thats the bueaty of the MRP you can just swap it back in under a minute if you dont like the barrel.i would piece together my own but i do like the thicker barrel just seemed really front heavy with the piston. didnt really seem very well balanced to me.
