Anyone built one?

I see that 7.5" are pretty common but would really like to go as short as possible.  The new SIG Rattler is my inspiration.  

Would it function non-suppressed or would this be a suppressor only host?

You'd need a custom gas system, shorter than pistol length.  If you went short enough you could get it to cycle subs unsuppressed but I'm guessing you'd end up severely overgassed with supers.

the rattler has a 1:5 twist barrel and I seem to recall the honey badger had a very fast twist barrel as well so may be difficult to find. even finding a blank would be a feat.

I built one around this barrel (like you was looking for the shortest barrel I could find)...... Sub Sonic unsuppressed no go........ but everything else works just fine with low profile gas block, carbine buffer. and spring.
