I want another carbine!;) I have a full rifle length system that I purchased and a carbine I built completely previously. I have had a spare stripped lower that recently put an lpk into now I want a complete upper.
I'm not looking for assistance in deciding on the brand and or model. I am looking for assistance on gasport location. I do not really want to build this upper, I want OEM. I can't decide between midlength or carbine gas system. It seems as though the midlength is a popular system and one I have no experience with. The carbine I built has been problem free. From what I've seen on this forum it seems like most of the problems that occur with various members guns regardless of what the prob is occur with midlength guns. It seems as the ones with middies are always asking about what they can change or upgrade to make it run better, is this due to the number of middies in use compared to carbine or is it something with this system?
Ive often wondered if the middy was a gimmick by manufacturers to sell more guns after all(as everyone says)if it ain't broke why fix it? I would like something softer shooting for my girl if the middy is noticeably softer and as far as parts wear is there a measurable difference? I was looking to get a 16" middy. Any thoughts, opinions and suggestions, thanks in advance.
