Brett, You're correct the optic costs more then I paid for the rifle. I bought a standard DI M&P15 when they came out and it proved to be an excellent AR. With everyone making piston system ARs now I guess curiosity got the best of me. The first time I looked at the piston system M&P I just liked the feel of the thing. I'll be posting a range report soon. I want to see if this is just a marketing ploy or if there are real benefits to a piston AR. I understand even Colt is building one, now that says volumes.
