    i would not trade an 11 for a 10, though.. its only an inch, and 11s are, apparently, on average, more reliable than 10s. if you've really got an itch, why not just save up a bit and buy a 10.5 upper in addition to the 11?
    This for the win.

    Well I sold my BCM 11.5 upper on the EE here a few days ago. Gonna try the 10.5 upper and see how it goes. When things bug me, I need to try them and find out for myself....

    Why?

    I put together a DD 11.5 a couple weeks ago, I've put almost 1500 rounds through it since then on one of our shop's FA lowers, mostly on full auto. Not a single hiccup, no cleaning, just lube.

    I prefer 10.5" over the 11".

    I have a 10.5" LMt and it has been awesome. However, if I were to do it all over again, I'd go with the 11.5". The 1" doesn't meaningfully cut down on manuverability, and it adds some much needed velocity.

    If this ends up working out better for you, then you'll have done great - your money, and I applaud your wilingness to give this a shot.

    I say you should just stick with the 11.5, but hey I'm lazy and I wouldn't go through the trouble to sell my stuff to just get an inch less on my barrel.

    waste of money IMO, little to no difference between the two.
    Dont sweat the small stuff.


    If youre not taking fire, its all small stuff.
