Building an AR 10 need help

[DanM]

Hello all and thanks for the add.  I'm starting a build on a dpms 308.  I really want a piston driven rig.  Any suggestions as to what manufacturer?  Thanks in advance.  Yes I'm a novice.

  You will probably have to purchase a complete rifle for a Piston system 308AR . Thee is none made( that I know of )  to convert a DI system rifle to a Piston system , even if you get a complete upper from a manufacturer that uses one , you would have to purchase their Lower receiver to mate up with it  & if you do that , might as well buy the complete rifle . Its not like an AR 15 , where they have conversions kits for one .
