No one recommended using such short barrel s because of the velocity needed in order for M193 / M855 to fragment.
Not counting the concern of the 10.5 and 11.5 reliability back then.
Now we have better expanding bullets. (Although I still think the 60yr Nosler Partition still can hold its own)
And now we have GI over in the middle east using 7.5 barrel carbines hidden under the attire .
Boy how things change!
If I didn't have to go through the ATF BS I would switch to a shorter barrel carbine in a heart beat.
BTW
Thanks for the info OP
