Alright guys, I'm interested in putting together a .300 Blackout. I've got an AR that's been standing in the corner, unfired for three years. I wanna try something different. So, I've been looking at barrels and see there are plenty of choices.
My questions:
1) If I choose a 16" barrel, and I only intend to shoot subsonic ammo with a suppressor, where does the gas port need to be (pistol or carbine location)?
2) If I later shorten said barrel to 12" (after having gotten the SBR tax stamp) will it still cycle if the gas port is for a carbine?
3) What configurations are working for you guys?
