Been enamored with my AUG for HD for awhile and have it setup for such. Recently built an AR Colt Commando clone and its roughly the same length with a 11.5" barrel instead of the AUGs 16.25". Its also 3lbs lighter not that that matters for this discussion although the Colt is 1 in 7 vs the AUGs 1 in 9 twist. Lets just assume length wise they are identical. Anyway it got me thinking for an HD gun in suburbia where overpenetration is a factor- is the shorter barrel better? Since all shots will be 10 yards max the velocity with either is plenty however slower with less expansion vs longer with better expansion got the wheels turning. Curios what the hive mind says? I do like the fact the AUG has 42 round mags that function 100% but is the couple hundred fps it brings actually a detriment? I also have to keep my ammo to 69grs or less with the AUG due to barrel twist vs going to 75 or 77 with the Colt.
