[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Short or long barrel RPD

Posted: 2/22/2011 7:37:57 AM EDT

I am going to have project guns build me a RPD but can't decide between the stock version or the short version with the 16" barrel, shortened bipod and nutsack for +$250. What do you think?

Going short compensates for your 'long' comings

16 is cool.... but you can't put it back on if decide you want it stock again

All very true. Tough decision.

I've wanted a shorty RPD ever since someone posted a picture of the Rhodesian guys with one. It looked sweet.

I'm buying a Polish RPD kit from Military Gun Supply and taking it to Wise Lite Arms as they are about 20 minutes from me.
I was wanting to have the barrel cut and the m60 flash hider put on with bipod cut and nutsack. So my question is why keep
the barrel long?

I decided on the long barrel version. I am going to keep it original and not modify the rifle at all.
