Is a standard A2 Birdcage long enough to bring a 10.5 barrel to legal length?

Not even close.

Just get a BCM A2X and you’ll be GTG.

This is a joke, right?

Your muzzle device will need to be at least 2.625" to clear 12" with a 10.5" barrel. Threading is ~.625" long, so that leaves ~9.875 which you need to add length to. Add in that not every barrel is actually 10.5" long, and you've got quite a challenge.

Something like a Surefire Warcomp is an easy choice as they're ~2.7" - but you're far better off with an 11.5" barrel anyway.

Legal length is 16" for a rifle

Agreed.  A BCM A2X makes a 14.5" over 16" to be a rifle, so if the thread length is the same, it'll make a 10.5" over 12" to be an other.
