In a nutshell, what do you like better about the middy, and if it's the cat's pajamas, why isn't it the USGI configuration?
(I think I understand in principle why the shorter system would have a harsher action, but I would also think that it could be engineered to work just fine at any length if you were to change the diameters of tubing, mass of components, etc. It's hard for me to imagine the M4 configuration being adopted so universally by the military if the basic engineering wasn't pretty much worked out. Of course I'm talking completely out of ignorance . . . )
