AR 16in vs. 20in barrel .223

No, CMMG is not the only one with a 16" Dissy with mid-length gas system. PSA makes a fine upper as well with this configuration. See the picture above in my post.

And a dissipator with a RIFLE gas system? That's what he was talking about. CMMG is the only one.

Magog: 16 in means the 5.56 is only good out to 100 yards, after that it is a common 22 mag round.

Love that temperay cavity the size of a basketball, yawing, fragmenting, hyperstatic shock...

Is this a joke?

Nah, THR hopped in its DeLorean and went back to 1990 for that particular post.

Thanks for the insights. Your comments have created a need for both. In the meantime, I am going to try and shoot the 20in before paying cash out... Many thanks.

You'll be pleased. I like the 20" AR-15. This is my first 16" version, but I also have a 16" VZ58. The 16" version really comes to the eye well, and is very evenly balanced. The 20" will give you a little more out past 300 yards like was said.

Good pickings and Merry Christmas.
