    what brand model gas piston uppers do you have or whats your opinions?

    Always great to get fellow calgunners to chime in on something when i want answers. Im looking to buy a gas piston upper and sell my stag 2ht. Is there a specific brand and model you could recommend?

    thanks

            AA stuff is good and affordable which is why people hype it up.

              LWRC M6A2 all day! It's accurate, reliable, and easy as hell to maintain. Its well worth it. Save up for it man.
              I also have a Stag model 8 and it and sometimes I wonder why I spent the money on a LWRC. It's been just as awesome. Just my .02

                I have the Hk mr556 complete rifle, but the upper can be bought seperately. It's Ubber expensive, and very front heavy. I like it and it's super well made, but would prefer if it had the 416 barrel instead. It functions flawlessly, and is a breeze to maintain. I do not prefer it over a DI gun, but wanted a piston AR in the collection so I could have experience with one.

                I have heard really good things about the LWRC, but don't own one so can't comment further.

                  IMHO not worth the weight over DI rigs
                  Can DI AR's run dirty?

                    Lwrc for sure. Hk and LMT are worth mentioning as well, but also not cheap.

                      FUD...

                      We're not talking about a heavy *** POF unit here. The LWRC units aren't much different in weight over a DI gun.

                            I've also heard good things about Huldra piston uppers.

                              I have 3 LWRC uppers. All work very well and considering the barrel profile, not heavy. The piston and rod can't weigh more than a couple of ounces. If you buy them used, great bang for the buck.
