Everyone is entitled to their opinion but 16" guns are fine with the carbine gas system.

Yes, he will be fine with it, but it is a fact that a 16" barrel with a carbine length gas system is harder and dirtier on the gun. A 20" barrel with the standard gas system is even less dirty, easier on the gun and more reliable. I can see why one would want a 16" for compactness over a 20", but why would you want a shorter gas system than needed when it does no good whatsoever? It's for him to decide though; I'm just letting the facts be known.

sometimes...people just overthink these weapons. It isn't rocket surgery, hell its not even rocket science. Just use quality components and quality ammunition and the AR-15 will tend to go bang every time. Some of these academic conversations are just getting to be too much.
