Simply put, it's more compact.

I have an upper in 10.5, I like the way it handles. 7.5 would be too short for me to shoot comfortably (I'm 6' tho)

It's stinkin short! I really like mine. It does throw a decent fireball, but that is part of the fun.

Here's a short video of my 10 year old nephew having fun shooting clays with it. The clays were at 50yds and 100 yds and he was nailing them pretty consistantly. This was the first time he shot this pistol.

Some people say they are too light over the front and jump too much. I kinda fixed that with mine it's full bull
with a bull gas block stepped down and cut and threaded for a break. Has some good weight out front but short !

My Rainier barrelled 7.5" is accurate and reliable. 7.5" is compact but has a lot of concussion and is deafning.
If you only have one, get a 10.5". More useful.

Yeah its not a pistol but its the same concept. I love my SBR with the 10.5 but I recently built a 7.5 to add to the stable. I haven't fired it yet because it was just completed yesterday.

I want a 10.5" so I can SBR it one day.

I went with a 7.5" because it was more compact. The concussion is wicked great and so are the fire balls!

The upper is as long as the lower. They come apart and fit in a very small box.

I went with "get both".

Admittedly, my 7.5 has a KX3 on the end, so it's about the same length and weight as my 10.5. I've found I like the 10.5 better because the recoil is much smoother.
