20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" I shoot better with a longer barrel on my AW AI platform for whatever reason. I prefer shorter barrels but shoot better with the longer barrel on this platform. I wasnt going to pipe in with a lie and state otherwise. I contributed this to perceived muzzle blast and...- TDECK

20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" I mostly agree with you on their knowledge. I dont personally know anyone on this board and therefore it is difficult for me to verify anyones credentials. I was trying to give a different side to the story and reply to the original question. I didnt realize this forum...- TDECK

20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" Lowlight, my point was simply that I notice a difference between my 20 inch and 26 inch. I shoot better with the 26 inch barrel which I attribute to less perceived muzzle blast. In previous post I have said that shorter is superior for urban settings. The majority of...- TDECK

20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" Its funny how you guys cant even work up the courage to admit that your silencers, cans, and supressors take away from your short barrels handling advantages. You are correct that I lack expertise in the area of silenced weapons. I will take it that you and Lowlight are...- TDECK

20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" Ok, I surrender. I agree that anything above a 20 inch barrel is a worthless relic. Lets just make sure we get the word out to everyone in the sand box that they would be better off with a squirt gun than with a oh so long 24 or 26 inch barrel. You guys act like these...- TDECK

20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" Lone Wolf, your really taking this too personally. I would not have spent $1,000 on a 20 inch barrel if I did not think it had its advantages. I don't know how to make my point any clearer about a can being at least as awkward as a longer barrel. The longer barrel has...- TDECK

20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" I dont use a can so it does not apply to my usage. I have a folding stock and have no issues. My other points are valid. All I am saying is that both lengths have advantages and its not the shorter barrels that only have advantages. If 18 is so good then why not bring...- TDECK

20", 24", or 26"
Re: 20", 24", or 26" I have a 20 inch and a 26 inch on a AI AW and I prefer the 26 inch. The recoil is less and the muzzle blast is less which aids in quicker follow up shots. The recoil impulse is also smoother. It places the muzzle 6 inches further away from your face which does make a...- TDECK

Re: Schmidt & Bender P4 reticle You need to see the P4F in person, Those pictures are way off. By the way there are several members on the Hide that hunt with a P4F reticle with great results. I am not trying to talk you out of the P4 but dont go by those pictures. I dont think you can go...- TDECK

Rifle Scopes Schmidt & Bender P4 reticle
Re: Schmidt & Bender P4 reticle The point is that the P4F works great for both situations. I have never had an issue with it in low light conditions, against brush, or speed drills. Most shooters prefer the P4F because it gives you the advantages of the P4 but appears less cluttered because...- TDECK

20" Barrel not good enough?
Re: 20" Barrel not good enough? Each length has its advantages. I have a AI AW with a 20 inch and a 26 inch. The advantages of the 26 inch are that you get less muzzle blast/flash and softer recoil because the barrel is 6 inches further away from your face. I get quicker followup shots and...- TDECK

Re: Lets see some Muliticam and GAP camo Rifles ! PGS, that is one of the best looking rifles I have ever seen. I am talking about the 26 inch multi cam. I may have to have GAP build me up something similar. The camo pattern is right on the money. I am am one of the few who like a 24-26...- TDECK
