If you can't decide between a 16" carbine and a 24" inch varmint barrel, why not go with the GI 20"? I carried one for several years before we went to M4's, and unless you spend a lot of time getting in and out of cramped vehicles with it or do a lot of CQB, you'll be fine.

What will the rifle be used for? 16" and 24" do not fill the same roles.

A 20" with A-1 stock is about as handy as a 16" and closer to the 24"'s velocity. Since you can only afford one rifle maybe it should be a 20".
