I guess no one’s reading the “shitpost/memes” flair 😂 ohhhhh how I’ve missed the shit talk/rivalry of the cope rifles. We’re sooooo back.

I would like a longer barrel than that. You never know when I'll find a snooker table at the range ;)

Nah, I'm sure you're well practiced, probably wouldn't even notice with how skinny it is.

The appeal of a 16” variant from IRG is increasing when I see this shitpost

STANAG magazines are approximately 2.5" wide, so you can use that as a gauge?

On my monitor, the magazine is ~1cm wide = 2.5". The barrel excluding the muzzle device is ~10cm long to where the hanguard meets the receivrer, so that would be like over 22 - 25+ inches long?

Gemini and ChatGPT think this is more like a 35" barrel?

(oh just noticed the flair ... 😂)

Don't worry guys I used gemini (that's googles chat gpt) and definitely verified that this is actually 20.1" according to the pixel count. OP may be lying to us but maybe he's not because both stock photos from two retailers have the muzzle brake so I forgot how to tie my shoes again brb asking chat

Need to add a 40 round Magpul Mag to it so looks a bit more proportional.
