Baby on the way and can only keep one AR15. Yes, I can only keep one AR.
Both are midlength gas sysytem, but I cannot decide on the barrel length - either a 16" or 14.5" with permanently attached A2.
16" - less aesthetically pleasing, more unwieldy, more velocity, maybe a little more cheap ammo tolerable w out having to change up buffers.
14.5" - looks badass, better balance/lighter, more compact, permanently attached muzzle device.
I don't mind a permanantly attached A2 - it is a good all around muzzle device and there are enough two-piece rails now that removing the front sight base is a non issue...
I really, really want the 14.5", but it seems that I want it for more aesthetic and badass reasons - am I an idiot?
What would you choose?
