[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1479054, member: 11960"] Took me a couple days to get the video made, but here you go. Apples to apples comparison of 20" barreled and 30" barreled guns shooting the same load under the same circumstances. This is a very extreme example using a load with 140gr of powder. [MEDIA=youtube]8qj7MSxkFek[/MEDIA] The recoil and flash are very manageable in both platforms. The pistol weighs 22.3# ready to shoot and the rifle weighs 21.8# ready to shoot. Most 16" barreled ARs have more flash than either one of the guns in the video and I don't think too many people get hung up on the muzzle flash in those guns. You can't beat physics, but you can manipulate it to your advantage. ;) edit: I don't intend for this to be a jab at you Wildrose, I just thought I'd give a real world example of the effects of a short barrel since I spend most of my time working with mid to large capacity cases in 18-20" barrels.
