Thanks for the information! Didn't think about a shorter version being louder... Most of the time just me shooting at the farm, so maybe not such a big deal.
I avoid surplus ammo... sounds like another good reason to keep my distance.
Are these "lefty friendly"? The AR I shot in basic had a bad habit of throwing hot brass down the back of my shirt - until the DI gave me a brass deflector. Would I need a similar device to shoot an M1A or does it throw brass to the side or forward?
