Re: AR Pistol Build for Car Gun
You guys have me pondering whether the handiness of a 12.5 would outweigh the muzzle velocity loss/extra blast as compared to a 14.5.

Re: AR Pistol Build for Car Gun
Everyone says that 10.5" and up is "best" in terms of retaining velocity.
12.5" should be fine, making it a bit more handy, while keeping the velocity for longer ranges.
I wasn't concerned with velocity/effectiveness at longer ranges - my pistol's purpose is "handiness first" - for indoors if needed.
If I need to shoot something measured in yards vs feet, I'll grab a carbine.
Also, I expected the sound of a Howitzer and flames like a dragon, based on what the internet said about short barrels, but my 7" 7.72x39 doesn't belch flames, and it's not terribly "blasty" either. It's loud, but not terrible.
On my 5.56 7.5" AR, I added a PWS CQB muzzzle device specifically to eliminate fireballs, and it works as advertised.
(both of these are 7.62x39 - 16" and 7")
(both of these are 5.56 - 16" and 7.5")

Speaking of "true stocks"...
SBA3 is the answer for pistols.
The Shockwave Blade "works", but the SBA3... yeah... whole other level.I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

Everything I own is getting changed to a Tailhook Mod 2. I have a couple.
