I've taken a six month or so forum hiatus, but I was browsing today and saw this thread bumped, so I'm back.
Hey Jim:
The trick that I found to getting my 8.5" (PSA nitride barrel) SBR to 29" was the combination of:
Magpul ACS / ACSL
Magpul extended buttpad (has to be the thickest one, they offer three sizes)
VLTOR 8 position A5 extended buffer tube
Each of those will add enough length that combined it should put you at 29" with an 8.5" barrel. I have a VLTOR emod stock at home, and when I was testing it wasn't as long as the ACS-L with the extended buttpad.
I've got a 9mm 8.5" barrel and I can't get close to >29". I'm using the VLTOR EMOD with a 15" LOP and I'm still and inch too short.
