I like the piston system as it is reliable and runs well. I like the rifle as a whole when shooting it.
All of my complaints are focused on the same essential thing: the non-removable handguard and as a secondary rant the fact they won't sell you certain parts.
The impetus for this was the phone conversation I had with them.
If no emotional attachment, sell it on Gunbroker or TOS, and wait for a 6920 to show up for sale in your local Walmart...

I think you're obsessing about nothing...
I "care" for my rifles as in i do preventative and routine maintenance but i never clean them yet keep them liberally oiled.
I live in Florida, specifically South Florida the Armpit of the United States and i have yet to have a single rust issue with any of my AR's in spite of rain, humidity and mud...
As others have said, spray under the handguards with brake cleaner, oil the sucker up and keep shooting.
Every year or so if you want to take advantage of Rugers generosity...do it. You paid a premium for the rifle so you may as well take them up on THEIR offer.
Blargh, I'm not obsessing about the dirt. It's the principle dammit.
Ruger has already done some work to it on their dime. I could not be happier with their service and support.
