    Not too bad a price for a piston AR-10. Competitive with what's out there now.

    If it runs I would say much better. I have had 3 friends buy the sig 716 and all had issues. 2 of them simply wouldn't run any better than a bolt action, and the 3rd made old school mini-14s seem like a tack driver. Turn around time on getting them repaired was a little excessive and one of the bolt actions came back still thinking it was a bolt action and not a semi. Sig has slipped from what they once were and should probably stick to p series pistols only.
    Personally I have no interest in a di or a short stroke piston ar. IMO pws has the best system out there with their long stroke piston setup. It runs cleaner, shoots softer, is more accurate than I am, and is very simple. Simple is always better. The recoil impulse on the pws guns is so much easier to deal with. My mk216 is a lot softer shooting than any other 308ar I tested before buying. I tried everything except for the Noveske n6 or the armalite due to the mags.

    I have no interest in a .308 AR. I was just curious

    Are you saying you have the MK 2 in 16" length? Also what did you pay for it? I see their MSRP on their .308 rifles is nearly $2900! Yikes!

    Hopefully the pic works. Has anyone tried hydrolic buffers in any of their AR's? I like having one in 308 much better than the stock buffer. Its not a piston driven, I was in the buy it once attitude a few years ago and hadnt known of piston AR10's. But I really like the P Mags.

    That's a nice carbine but I'm good with my Siaga 308. I wish P Mag would make mags for the Siago though... My FBMG mags are doing great but it'd be nice to have some truly quality mags available for when I need em...

    Yes, I have a mk216 in 308 as well as a mk114 in 556 for my wife and a mk116 in 300blk.
    I payed $2350 for it locally after tax. All of mine are the mod 0 version. The new versions are a little more with the adjustable gas system and keymod rail.

    From a utilitarian point of view I would have made it 18" min and more like 20" as the decibel blast to unprotected ears from a 16" barrel is devastating to ears.
