[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Anybody hang a Phantom on their 16in?

Posted: 8/25/2004 10:53:47 AM EDT

I have a BM Patrolman's Carbine barrel sitting on my front porch (UPS tracking - you gotta love it!) and was considering installing a Phantom instead of the A2 FS but thought it might look funny; i.e too long. Anybody have one on their 16 inch barrel and still thinks it looks acceptable?

not a very good picture and hunt101 is down so i can't put any others up right now. it looks fine but it would look better if it had an OAL of 16". My barrel is a 16" pencil barrel from a preban and it's just a hair smaller in diameter than the FS. I actually like the look of my old 5.5" FS because it covers up a few inches of the skinny barrel. I've got two pictures that are pretty good side shots but don't have too much detail. it looks good overall.

Here is a Dissy with a Phantom.

I think it still looks acceptable.

Another Dissy, I think they look good on a 16''.

Thanks, all, for the pics. I've decided to go ahead with the Phantom.

Got one on my SP-1 CAR-15 pencil, it looks good (to me at least!). It works even better.

I've got a phantom on a 16" barrel and IMO I think it looks too long. That's why the barrel is going to Adco to be cut and phantom permanently installed.
