quick ?

Post by Jethro99 »

Buddy of mine wants me to switch out his 16" bbl with a 20". He wants to keep the 6 position stock. It's his yote gun and they run'em with hounds, in the snow. so the adjustable stock to fit the jacket for the day, -20 to 40 deg.
Will keeping the carbine buffer give us a problem? I've done it the other way, 16" with A-2 stock and rifle buffer.
The crime is not shooting poorly, the crime is not learning to shoot better.

You might have to play with the buffer weight but you can make it work with a collapsible stock.

shouldnt be a problem unsuppressed.

my lower gets paired with 16" blackout, 16" 223, 20" 223 and 24" 204 ruger, no worries
once i suppress the 223 uppers though, i've had to lightly tweak things to prevent some overgassing - even on the 20" upper.

i'm expierementing with buffer weight combo's right now and plan to test the 16" carbine gas blackout suppressed with subs with a H2 and see if it cycles.

I've got 16s on Car and Mid length gas, an 18 on rifle gas, all running 6 pos stocks, H - H2 buffers, they all run. 20" on rifle gas will be a soft shooter, that's for sure.

My first 20" build had a standard carbine stock and buffer and it worked fine.
