LWRC AR vs Ruger SR 556

[battleship]

Which is the better buy, Brand, performance and over all design and operation between these two gas piston AR's.

LWRC Hands Down, I miss my M6A2 Upper, but I don't miss the high prices of 5.56 / .223 though

Hands down, but what do you base the comparison on, have you experienced both systems.

I played with an SR-556 that came into the shop and I've played with the LWRC M6's that came in too. The LWRC wins hands down. The M6 rails can detach separately from the bottom or top to clean the piston area, where as the ruger is just a mix and match of Troy, Magpul, and Adams gas piston. Nothing really innovative. Just another AR with the ruger name and xxx-xxxxx serial numbering. Plus the LWRC has gone through extensive military testing and use and I trust that more than the Adams GP. I know I know, military uses it so I must too is kind of a joke but on somethings, if it works for them then it says something about how it performs IMO. My boss uses an LWRC upper on his preban that he runs in carbine classes and it has never failed him. I do like the chrome bolt too.

LWRC without question.

Re: highlight.... where did you get this info? From what I've read around the net (and granted, I don't frequent the AR15.com or m4carbine.net sites) the piston design was in-house and patent pending. Do you have a reliable source/link? I'd like to know.
