Nick_shoots_fast Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 I’m currently building a “light weight SPR” and was thinking about going 18”. What gas length do I go with and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieD Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Rifle length, softer shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caspian guy Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Rifle... You don't really need to start thinking about mid till you get to the 16-14" area (and I have had 16" barrels that worked well with rifle length gas systems as well but they were a little more ammo sensitive for me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonytheTiger Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Rifle. I won't even buy a mid 16" anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRider Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Rifle length gas, shoots soft, easier on parts and reliable. Agree with Caspian Guy on 16" guns, for broader operating window, I would go with a midlength gas. Hurley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nheiny13 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 In an 18" there is absolutely no reason to get anything other than a rifle length system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1911 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Rifle for sure. I only go mid on 16" barrels and won't touch carbine at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
