Buy recommendations Carmel barrel length

Post image

Is this really how long the IWI barrel is or atleast how it looks on the gun. This is on CRAFMs website.

Here’s a photo of the Makasi with the 18.6” barrel. Not as bad in my opinion or funky looking. Honestly with the state of guns in this goddamn country I’m not concerned with looks and more so functionality. I was just curious as it looks kind of crazy on the website.

I think the difference is the handguard being longer on the Makasi.

That's considerably less dumb looking.

Yea, the Makasi handguard is 12'' vs. 10.5'' on the Carmel.
So exposed barrel on the Makasi is 6.6'' vs. 8.1'' on the Carmel.
