[QUOTE="HMFIC, post: 1514191, member: 7539"] Just playing devils advocate here and helping you to think about things... KRISS came up with a way to reduce felt recoil and improve accuracy in full auto by also reducing barrel creep with their design. It sounds to me like you have a design that uses the butt of the weapon as a way to buffer the recoil perhaps similar to the way the KRISS does it but you'll have to have some other type of feed mechanism perhaps a horizontal magazine on top with a lower barrel design? For it to be 30" overall and 20" of barrel, you're going to only have 10" of action, feed, firing and butt. My question would be why maintain the 20" barrel if your main goal is concealability? The velocity improvement won't be enough in my mind to outweigh maneuverability. 30" is a lot of stiff metal to try and get in and out of a vehicle with while still concealing. [/QUOTE]
