I need to choose a barrel for my build.  The WOA barrel comes with gas system because it's a custom length.  With the Wilson it's a standard rifle length.  I like the WOA but should I be concerned since it's not a standard length gas system?  Thanks for any input!

I looks like the WOA the gas block already installed. I don't see where u see it is a custom length gas system.

I'd be surprised if someone like WOA used non standard gas length(carbine, midlength, rifle)

If it is not standard length I'd stay away in case a gas tube needed replaced and you would have to buy a custom length gas tube.

I emailed them to ask what the length was and they said it's about 1" shorter than rifle but longer than mid.  That's why I say it's a "custom" length.

Get this.

Or the SS version when it's back in stock.

I'd definitely stick with a standard gas system.

I'm not 100% for sure, but would that be the intermediate system? Used on some SPR type rifles. It is supposed to be in between rifle and mid.

I run an intermediate gas system on my SPR and it is a soft shooting gun with very minimal gas blow back when suppressed.

That's a nice looking rifle there!  I'm in NJ, so there won't be any suppresing or flash hiding..........
