The thought has crossed my mind to cut down my BCM 14.5 midlength to SBR lengths somewhere around 10.5 to 12.5. Is this doable or more trouble than it's worth?
Thanks...

I could be wrong but I believe that the shortest you can get and keep the middy gas length is 14.5. You can have the 14.5 barrel cut down to those lengths listed but wont be able to keep the middy gas system.
Thanks bro. I figured that if it was doable, someone would have been building them already.
Talk to bigbore at ADCO (I think). I believe he cut down a mid-length to 12.5" without issue,
If Steve did, it was probably with some sort of special gas block he makes...
A 12.5 inch mid can be done. I even know the gas port size!
Opinions differ on how appropriate that idea would be. One of these days I'll start asking how well a can works on increasing dwell.
Seems like a "why bother" to me. This whole midlength thing is getting out of hand.
Midlength getting out of hand? You probably mean the length people will go to to keep or get a midlength when the carbine gas system would do much better for them, as in this case, right?
