Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Building first rifle
Posted: 8/17/2007 8:06:02 AM EDT
I have a Mega lower and upper on the way right now. I am trying to decide between a carbine and a mid-length build. Can someone please explain the difference as I hear tha tthe Mid-length is a little more forgiving as far as the gas system?

Thanks

I like the 14.5" middy with perm FH. Its very well balanced IMO. If I were building one I would go middy all the way
