Similar. Two 20 inchers, and a SOPMOD Block II clone 14.5 just because.
16" first, and if I didn't live in this piece of shit gun hating state of Illinois, an 11.5" would be my second choice. A third rifle in the mix, I'd add another 16" probably.
I am surprised at the number of folks going 14.5". I don't personally see any reason to go with 14.5" as opposed to 16", either ballistically or handling wise, what am I missing here?
A 12.5" 5.56 and a 10.2" 300 BO.
11.5 and 16
11.5" 14.5" Pinned 18" SPR
Never worried about the first panic and was more than ready along with most of the people I know.
If you aren't already ready for the next one (IF there is one coming ???),you are already screwed.
14.5, and 20" High powered optic for 500-1000 yard precision, lightweight 14.5 for close quarters, or anything under 200 yards.
I have thought about this at some length. I have several ARs. I would narrow it down to my 18" Noveske with rifle gas system and my Noveske 12.5 SBR.
With those setups I could do whatever I need.
Non SBR Route: 1: Colt 6920/6720 or 16" BCM of your flavor 2: Daniel Defense MK 12 (18" SPR type rifle) Optional 3rd: repeat number 1 or 14.5" LW KMR style carbine
SBR Route: 1: Colt 6933 or BCM equivalent, 2: Daniel Defense MK 12 or BCM 16" Recce style carbine, 3rd rifle: second SBR
If you are a cheap skate like me: 2 Colt 6920 or equivalent and call it a day
