None of them....if I wanted a piston gun I would buy one designed that way such as the AR 180 instead of trying to force a great design to take a part it was not meant to use.
This.
It seems like the AR piston conversions are introducing more issues than they are allegedly correcting, to say nothing of adding weight and complexity (i.e. more things to potentially go wrong and more parts to break) to an otherwise simple and reliable system.
The other thing that prevents me from recommending said systems is that there is no industry standard; there's a TON of players in the game right now, and everyone is taking a slightly different approach so nobody's parts are cross-compatible. I think the industry will really shake itself out in the next few years. Until then, you run the risk of buying and being stuck with the firearms equivalent of a Betamax VCR (or HD-DVD for you young'uns).

Please tell us about your personal piston AR that you had all these "issues" with.
The OP did not mention an conversion. ...
I was looking at the ruger sr556, seems to be a very popular ar15. I havent heard very many bad things about it.
Just didnt know if there were any other ar's out there around the same price range
