The biggest difference is that the mid-length rifles have a greater distance between the front and rear sight. This is supposed to translate into more accurate shooting. Of course the handgaurds are longer on the mid-length as well.
There was a post a couple of weeks ago, where people posted some pics of their mid-length rifles. |

I bought mid lenth because the shorter stock was too short.. im 6'3" and got long arms, it just was not comfortable to shoot. I didnt want full lenth because i wanted a CAR.. I love my mid lenth, personaly i think different is better.....just my .02..

Smoother cycling with lower gas impulse, increased long term reliability over standard carbines.

I really like mid-length handguards for the reasons already mentioned.
However, options for rifles with them are a little more limited than for rifles with the standard length handguards. |

Quoted: Smoother cycling with lower gas impulse, increased long term reliability over standard carbines. This brings up a good point, because some mid-lengths may not have the longer gas system incorporated into them. |
