Daily reminder 20" is the correct barrel length

You should buy your AR15 in 20", everything else is carried by homosexuals and not aesthetic.

>not sure if it matters ultimately

Your damn right. 20" barrel is the only barrel length for an AR15. Reminds me of my M16A2 I was issued when I served. I see all the DVD's on YouTube about the kids using the M4. Let me tell you, I am not impressed. Even if I were 20 years younger, 40 pounds lighter, and deployed to Afghanistan I'd take a 20" over a baby barrel any day.

Is everyone on this fucking board so insecure they have to constantly validate their purchase by shitting on everything else?

They're all good guns you fuck ups.

A2>A1

spotted the nogunz

I'll agree that the irons and birdcage are better on A2's.
Build an AR, they're adult lego sets.

Shitting on others is entertaining. Most of the people on Jow Forums are lonely or bored, getting into arguments and shitting on others is a somewhat interesting activity that costs nothing and is a great distraction from their imperfect lives. The more caustic or controversial, the more responses, and thus more entertainment. This goes both ways, as the OP and the anons responding are actively engaged

I own an AR.

My post still stands.

People forget that two people arguing on the internet probably aren't mad at each other and are just keeping themselves amused or being inflammatory to drive discussion. This is a culture where "kill yourself you fucking faggot" is just punctuation.

18" is as long as an AR should ever be. And that's for a DMR build.
Also a carry handle? Not even once.

Did you forget where you are?

Interesting to see reddit's take on all of this

Wrong! 21in is best

Why not have both 20" and 16"? Are poorfags so poor they can't afford another upper assembly? And then buy a stripped anderson lower on sale for cheap, and then buy a LPK for cheap/sale and have 2 assembled ARs?

not gonna make it user

Alright its time to out myself
Can someone explain to me the differences between an A1 and an A2?

A2 looks better, it has a better barrel, the rear sight is fully adjustable out to 800 yards (600 on a A4) Only thing a A1 has going for it is... well really nothing.

A 20 inch barrel belongs on your general purpose build (M193 defeats level III plates this way), an 11.5 inch barrel is meant for your HD build. A 16 inch barrel ends up being the worst of both worlds

>A2 better then A1

Based, never got the allure of the A1.

20", heavy barrel, fixed carrying handle, 62gr
As G.od intended

Reminder 11.5" is peak for civilian use due to compact size and more than enough power for ranges they would be realistically expected to be shooting

Think fast, a 'yote is eating your chickens 301 yds away, how do you save them huh ?

Half convincing boomer
You need to mention colt and how no one needs high capacity magazines

this is a fucking terrible take. A2 ergos are awkward for anything but prone. the new sight is good but mostly unnecessary for a GI rifle when the 5.56 is flat to 300yrds. pencil barrel ar 20in is a better choice when you need to take it anywhere but from the car to the bench. I'll give that the A2 is technically a better built machine, but like many US army projects it began the drift away ffrom the original design desires.

The A2 profile puts the weight of the barrel towards the muzzle instead of in front the chamber where it belongs, so it is a heavier rifle without a sturdier barrel. Its chamber reciprocates SS109/M855, which is objectively inferior to M193 Ball with respect to terminal and external ballistics due to the steel insert, the latter ends up actually exceeding in armor penetration with its superior muzzle velocity. The A2 is the first AR-15 derivative to feature a burst fire control group, which results in a heavier trigger pull weight in general whether firing automatically or not. The A1 was just a better rifle on the whole

20 inch AR with straight 20 rounder mags is PEAK AR15

Is that the brownells repro scope? How do you like it? I want to cop one.

It still outclasses AK-47 derivatives so long as you are not in the same room as its user

28 inch master race here

Slightly better buttstock if you have long arms, worse aesthetics, marginal differences everywhere else.

>loses velocity
>also loses accuracy due to barrel whip

An extra 8 inches of exposed barrel to burn yourself on because 5.56 heats up barrels really fast for some reason

>Its chamber reciprocates SS109/M855
what are you even trying to say here

Why would you have a 28 inch barrel? That actually makes bullets slow down

That the additional free bore in an M16A2's chamber accommodates the higher pressure resulting from M855's powder and grain, as opposed to the M16A1's SAAMI .223 chamber which was only rated for M193, M196, and all other 5.56mm cartridges predating 5.56 NATO

>better barrel
Yikes

No, I cop'd it off of e-bay. It's one of the later japanese repros. I haven't fully tested its accuracy yet but it's very nice to have.

A2 fags are just the zoomer version of wood furniture fags.

Your aesthetic is shit.

>not having the superior 20" barrel
Laughs in 1:12

Shoot them, are you implying an AR pistol can't shoot that far?

>A2
>better barrel
You misspelled 'retarded'

God intended the original pencil barrel.

24 inch is better

A2 replaced full auto with burst.

As long as you don't treat your rifle like a SAW, which is exactly what they did in the 'Nam

What an ugly monstrosity

The barrel is more accurate than you are.
The pencil barrels were fine in the full auto A1.
But do educate us how a constriction in the middle of the barrel for a grenade launcher is better.

It was dropped due to a misconception that the thinner barrels were bending under hard use, because straightness gauges were getting stuck in the bore.

The reality was that a burr was forming at the gas port when it was drilled that captured jacket material and fouling, causing the gauges to stick. This was discovered after the A2 had already been decided on.

I had to teach the CO how to work the collapsible stock.

Like many of you, I too did not notice the einzelfeuer being practiced by M16A2 users. This film really demonstrated the waning relevancy of small arms among the occupying force too

I agree OP, but that really should be a pencil profile barrel. Govt profile was a mistake. The A2 program should have stopped at the round handguards, everything else was a waist of time.

Worst twist rate, 20" 1:7 masterrace.

>why is this internet hate machine so darned mean?
Honestly was looking into an 18" barrel for an AR with a full length gas system.

That's not 1:14
>only having one AR
Lmao it's like you don't shoot thousands of rounds of m193

What’s that Fritz? We only used burst when we were mag dumping to fake our brass collection count after field exercises.

Seems like they stopped using helicopters as ambulances too. Only time I ever called one, TOC was like “it’s too hot, you better run out like in the movie”.

How are you going to clear a room, you can’t even make your bed.

>Fritz
I employ the term einzelfeuer because that is the original, historical designation and "single fire" or "semi-automatic" are retarded descriptions. Additionally, S/E/F looks better on the selector markings than Safe/Semi/Burst or S-1-3

I'll put my 11.5" match grade barrel against any milspec 20" barrel anyday. I get 1/2-3/4" groups @100yrds with PMC bronze.... 64gr match ammo shrinks it down to less than 1/2" plus it's lighter and with the can, it's still less than 18" i shoot out to 600 with it just as easy as you please.

Sir, except for the boys in blue I think they get a pass. Getting in and out of cars every day requires a maneuverable platform and I don’t care if criminals have to feel getting shot by lower power rounds, fuck them. God bless all law enforcement.

No... No they are not... Maybe a match grade barrel vs a average Joe. But a off the shelf barrel that's made on a production line is usually sub-par on accuracy and doesn't meet high standards some of us need.

Not with that shitty brace

Your AR's 20" barrel needs to be a 1:14 twist, anything else is for homosexuals and not peak performance

What is the ideal length for an AR-9 barrel with a "pistol brace"?

>S/E/F looks better on the selector markings than Safe/Semi/Burst or S-1-3
Looks better, Fritz? American A2s are always in one shot one kill mode. No need for switches.

Don't you mean "airsoft?"

The problem, John, is that the burst cam makes two out of every three trigger pulls on "semi" all fucky

Go fall into the Grand Canyon taking a selfie zoomed

I can smell the cotton candy juice in your jul from here. Imagine not being able to afford a pistol, 16, 18 and 20.
