    Heavy barrels are awful, the gun will balance like shit and weigh a ton

    I wouldn't buy 1:9 as it limits your projectile choice and I wouldn't go longer than 18" especially if planning on using a suppressor

    As Gimp said try to avoid heavy profile barrels unless you planning on firing a lot quickly and need the extra accuracy, they are heavy. Having said that I would choose 1/8 twist Hbar over a 1/9 twist but that's my opinion.
