The detriments of DI, i feel are high maintenance to maintain reliability, and life of parts.
Thank you for the link, that is exactly what I was looking for. If only this guy did an ar10/scar17 comparison. If I went Scar, i would go 7.62 because i know for sure that this 17 isn't going anywhere since the navy had fn cancel the 16 and make 17s.
But overall thanks, this comparison is exactly why i came to this thread. looking for something that google doesn't seem to want to help me with.
