Such a great episode ! !!<| sep |> I find it funny how the only people who think racist has lost all meaning are rthedonald types . The rest of us still know what it means . <| sep |> Mistreatment ? that harambe browed steroid cheat should never be allowed to compete against a woman . <| sep |> They have to make smaller thrusters powerful enough to counteract the main thrusters otherwise ships could not stop or brake in reasonable time without doing a full 180 turn . So it seems like they ' re trying to have the main thrusters mainly dictate top speeds at cruise rather than acceleration . <| sep |> That was Britney Spears ? ?!<| sep |> Can you post photos ? <| sep |> Longer gas systems are softer shooters because the gas pressure is lower . A pistol gas system has 129 % higher pressure than a fullrifle length gas system . A carbine gas system has 67 % higher pressure than a fullrifle length gas system . A midlength gas system has 35 % higher pressure than a fullrifle length gas system . Lower gas pressure translates to easier case extraction , less gas port erosion , lower bolt velocity , less physical deflection , and less felt recoil . Though the industry has moved to shorter and shorter barrels due to trendfollowing what are the cool cats shooting ? , I would like to ask this question While a shorter barrel offers greater maneuverability , how many gun owners outside military , law enforcement , and 3 gun competition does that actually benefit ? Even home defense applications don ' t really handicap 1820 inch barrels . It didn ' t really deter Marines , but I digress . Presumably , you ' re primarily interested in securing your family and defending them against the intruders , not performing SD . You know the layout of the rooms and can plan and train accordingly . The intruders doesn ' t have the home field advantage . In my opinion , the average gun owner won ' t shoot enough to the point where barrel and parts life becomes an issue . Therefore , it becomes a matter of personal preference as to what he or she prefers in terms of performance , operation , and appearance . Midlength gas systems would probably suit the needs of most , but there isn ' t any reason for people to be dissuaded from fullrifle length gas systems and 1820 inch barrels . An AR 15 with a 16 inch barrel and fullrifle length gas could possibly be the best of both worlds in terms of maneuverability and recoil , but it requires greater care in part choices and assembly .
