Seekins SP10 6.5CM cut down to 18”

[wade2big]

Has anyone cut a Seekins SP10 barrel down to 18” and it still cycle? The 6.5cm barrels use a plus 1.5” or so gas system. I haven’t measured the gas port size. I may give it a try.

Unless you are planning on running 100% suppressed, I think it is risky.

Thats .5" more dwell time than I have in a very reliable 5.56 gun, I'd try it.

I would chat with D Wilson and get his thoughts and also have him cut it down.

Why not rebarrel it with something shorter?

I'd be pretty comfortable with that length but the port may need enlarged.

I’ll most likely leave these one alone and just cut my Seekins 6arc down fron 22” to 18”. I know this one will work for sure as Seekins made a run with 18” barrels using the same gas length and port size.
