| I am in the process of building an NFA/Class III short-barreled AR, and I plan on using an 11.5" barrel. I have read that rifles with barrels this short sometimes experience cycling/feeding problems due to a lack of gas pressure. If this is so, what is the easiest fix? Or, will it depend on the indivisual rifle? |

Like Noname posted pigtail would help. I have 11.5" ,didn't try pigtail yet because I don't have a problem at all, as far as reliabiliry is concerned . I think the gas tube will be shorter if you go shorter than 11.5", therefore reliability, or lack thereof, will be a factor. I did change heavy duty extractor spring and install O-ring to improve extraction. |
