definitely cover most of the suppressor with rail. but the length is up to our personal preference ( can you shorten without having to refile with the ATF ???)
Yeah, especially since my SBRs are all 14.5" 5.56 guns. Only notify the ATF if you make a "Permanent" alteration which you really can't do to an AR15. I suppose if I sold my 14.5" 5.56 upper some could argue that would be permanent since I couldn't easily go back, but I don't even think that would be permanent.
Even then, it doesn't really matter. They don't respond when you notify them and you don't have to wait for a reply.
IMHO, excessively long rails are dumb and add weight. Let the can stick out.
12" rail isn't exactly huge in terms of rails, plus no one wants to see a gas block
IMHO that isn't one of my questions. I like them.
So which rail homie?
Thinking I am NOT going to cut the barrel. Got to thinking that since almost an inch of the barrel is inside the upper and I loose an inch and a half to thread overlap. 6.5" barrel + 9.5" can - 1" inside receiver - 1.5" of thread overlap = 13.5" Since the rail is 12-12.5" that would only leave an inch to an inch an a half of can sticking out. A bit too short I think.
IMO 1/2" of exposed can looks better than 1 1/2" exposed, just poking out is my preference in life and guns.
I love the Todd Jarret handguards, used to have some on my first AR15
