Take my 2 cents for what they are worth...
Personally, I wouldn't pay more for the piston over the DI. In fact at the same price I'd probably still pick the DI due to it being slightly lighter and cheaper to replace when/if you ever wear it out, even if that is unlikely to ever happen.
Now before I say what I'm going to say next I should say that either option from LWRC is good to go and i would put them solidly in the "you can trust your life on it" caliber of quality. This is based off of my research and the opinions and experience of guys with much more knowledge and experience than I.
With that in mind, for $700 more, ok ok $800, so now we're talking $2400, then I would choose a
KAC SR-15 instead.
Likewise at the price point of $1600 for the DI then I would personally just save $100 and pick a FN Tac 2 and get the wedge lock rail design for $1500.
Another caveat: If you are getting a great deal on a used LWRC (I'm not sure if this is what we are talking about) then there isn't any good reasons to not get it.
