    7.62x39 was designed for a 20inch barrel so they make quite a flame out of a 14.5er. Shortening the barrel will make it worse and you will loose velocity. It is also possible that the gas system may not work that well. I fitted a 9inch hand guard from Ken and my MAE AR10 suppressor now fits perfectly. It really tames the nasty flame (visible from the scope view!).
    Yeah Ken (what a good bastard) is letting me swap the stock 12" rail for a new 9" one. The only reason I wanted to shorten the barrel is so the gun doesn't end up front heavy and unbalanced.. What is yours like with suppressor? What design is the suppressor you have? How heavy?
    Also what ammo do you use?

    I use an MAE AR10 which is heavy but indestructible. Still balances ok because I have a heavy stock and scope. You could try and get one of the alloy suppresors with stainless inserts or Titanium if you can afford the coin. Ammo? All sorts, hand-loads, Russian and Chinese. All works ok but my hand loads are a bit slow.

    I might use a Waitaki Engineering can - similar to NEA. I have the Servo 10" stock from NZAR15 which is quite heavy. Thanks for the advice

    Yep that sounds like the bugger. I think a little weight on a x39 AR is not bad or they will jump around a bit. I might try putting an adjustable gas block on mine.

    I will definitely get one if I suppress it. I was thinking Mark at Waitaki Engineering could just make an adjustable one out of the one already on there.. Have to see what he thinks

    After owning this rifle for months & tossing up whether to keep it or let it go Ive finally got it set up & just gota find some time and nice weather to go out and put some bombs threw it.

    Titan 3 in 22-250, Schultz and Larsen hardcore suppressor and Weaver V16 4-16x 42 scope with fine crosshair and centre dot, should be a good little bunny blaster

    Nice. You said you were going to have the back of the receiver cleaned up. How did it turn out?
