Build question:
On an AR-15 platform.
Assume rifle length system, mid- load range .223 loads, with an adjustable gas block and adjustable recoil buffer weights/springs.
What is the minimum length of barrel beyond the gas block that would typically be required to assure proper function?
In other words, how short a barrel can an AR15 have with a rifle length system and still function reliably?
I recognize there are many variables, but looking for a general "rule of thumb" minimum value.
Thanks.
