@MechMage if you're interested I can link you a much better explanation of this shit from a professional
Sure, but I can't promise I'll watch it tonight.
It's kind of interesting but not for 3 in the morning.
What you say is all true, but a short barrel 5.56 will still do its job within the range most people would use one for.
theoretically, yes
but there are a plethora of reasons to choose a different caliber if barrel length is such a sticking point
hell 300 Blackout fits within standard AR15 parts completely. All you need to swap is the barrel
I have a 10.5" and it's a blast to shoot.
I have no doubt
And I don't have to worry about finding a new source of ammo.
Mk18s are incredibly fun, and that's a 10.3 barrel
One other reason for a shorter barrel is if you want less weight overall. It is true you can also get a light barrel, but those can get expensive fast.
I still have my Constitution.
If I was being caused by people like that I would be within my rights to self defense.
And then no one would ever try it again.
Yo if you show up to the big Igloo with that 7.5 upper you can't be on my team
I went with 300BLK strictly because I wanted a short barrel. I also got to be at an indoor range at the same time as a guy who had a 5.56 AR pistol and *goddam* those things are loud.
You should be buying useful things right now
Damn, I'm 0.3" too short
You're 100% going to die
RIP bb

Imagine not being able to loot nuclear codes and all kinds of space age secret tech from work for when it all goes down.
Hope you're all ready for the Flananreich.
Imagine thinking working the IT desk at the FAA department of LGBT inclusion is going to win the big Igloo for us
Sounds like an awful lot of cope...
Woops...
@FitnessByHeatherHeyer WELL AK-SHU-ALLY when it comes to 300blk the powder is done burning by the time the bullet gets to about 8-9 inches down the barrel anything longer than a 12in barrel and you are drastically reducing velocity. Most people that use the cartridge agree that 9-10.5 inch barrels are the most efficient.
@Ragglefraggle07 but who was stabilization?
Stabilization of the round is more dependent on twist rate, bullet weight, and velocity once barrel length is established. Obviously if you're using a 3in barrel your chances of stabilizing are slim to none but I believe people are reporting good stability in barrels as short as 7in.
Baby I'm ignorant on Blackout, regardless of twist rate 62 caliber bullet / 125 grains should need longer than 9 in
I'm just stating what the designer of the cartridge intended and found worked best. It was designed for the honey badger and that has a 6in barrel

I always knew you were a nigger.
@Legalize are we allowed to post hot stuff in here?
Wrong. It's a double IPA. Double nigger.
Nigggger if you will
