Wow.
Looks like my questions prompted some, er, “vigorous discussion.”
Thanks to all for lots of information.

ASH556 - mostly 10.3 because “shorter”.
I don’t own a suppressor (yet), but it seems like if I put a SF can on there, I’m right back up to 16” (like my Geissle SD rifle unsupressed).
But I’m not married to the idea of 10.3. Hence my questions.
I’ve also imagined eventually putting a LAW folder on it. Sounds like that might prompt a buffer change?
And if I do lay out the coin for a SF can (because: easily removable with the SF3P already on my Super Duty rifle), it would be nice to be able to use it on the rifle or the pistol. So that may figure into desired pistol barrel length, too.
