You won't find piston guns in that price range. Good piston guns START at 1400 plus. Also stay away from the piston kits, they are clunky and tend to cause carrier tilt. If you must go with a piston gun, go with one that has been designed from the ground up like the Ruger 5.56 or the LMT MRP, or if you are feeling really spendy, the LWRC line.
Spikes Tactical is the best gun in that price range and offers a lot for the money. Everything's milspec, you get everything properly staked, you have a chrome-lined chamber and barrel and that barrel has a 1:7 twist. All this for $799. While Bushmaster is a fine company, it doesn't offer the quality for anything close to that price.
Don't go with anything from Budsgunshop.com. That company will eventually kill your local dealer.
