I'll be plinking targets at the range and using it in case of a civil war. Any reason to splurge and double my cost for a gas piston rifle?

No, it's just heavier and more expensive. Spec ops guys with a choice still routinely use DI. People keep trying to force meme pistons but it's just not worth it

Long stroke, which almost nothing else is, plus it's purposefully got loose tolerances. If I had to bury a rifle it would be an ak but other wise, ehh

DI. Zero reason to splurge, and you will never be able to tell a difference. They both go BANG.

I once asked a Recon Marine what the difference was. He said basically nothing, although he was deployed once and rarely had to clean his piston gun.

In what universe is GP always more expensive? AK-47s have generally been cheaper than M4s.

Gas piston is better for lots of full auto fire, as the heat doesn't get concentrated so much in the gas tube. Part of the reason the usmc is switching to the m27 IAR. Of course it also has heavy barrel which you also need for lots of full auto fire. Stick with the DI system

DI. There is no advantage to GP. DI is cheaper, more parts, and most importantly has less recoil.
