Around here, the only drawback is that the biggest outdoor range close to me doesn't allow anything NFA. The only other potential problem I could think of would be if you wanted to go take a class in a state that doesn't allow NFA.
With that said, you could always buy another upper later if you wanted to travel to one of those god-forsake places.:p
Yes, it will be cool to get a SBR... but I really wish I could also get a silencer!!! Not legal here in MN.Quote:

It has gotten a really bad name, and most of it started back in the late 90's early 2000's when Crane NSWC would get 14.5" bbl's from Colt and cut them down themselves. After they were cut, they never properly ported the Gas Port, and the "reliability" issues occured. With the proper Port size a 10.5" will run just fine, and yes even without a Krink.
I have a few Powerpoints from the testing done at NSWC Crane regarding the 10.5 (after the port issue was worked out) and it clearly shows that it runs just as good as a 14.5" or 16" bbl.

No! That wouldn't help because the rifle is still registered as an SBR and is a NFA weapon regardless of the upper used. In a non NFA state you would still be up shit's creek. Of course, someone would actually have to run the serial number to know it was registered....:DQuote:

Get a 11.5". It's a good compromise between the handiness of 10.5 but without the usual reliability problems.
I have a CMMG 11.5" and it runs great.
What is SBR?
What is the shortest barrel you an have as a civilian and not be breaking any law?
16 "...
or
14.5 with a pinned or fixed Flash hider or muzzle break.
but what is "sbr"?
