Looking to build my 3rd AR and I am not sure what this description means...

My last 2 I bought...... 1/7 twists, M4 feed ramps but I'm not sure what the SOCOM is or if this has M4 ramps.

Any input would be appreciated.

Yep, it has M4 feedramps.

Look at pics.  SOCOM isn't going to have the notch at the end of the barrel, which I really don't care for anyway, i'm never gonna use it.  Just looks like a "weak" spot, even though it probably never will be an issue.



Radical also makes a mid-length 16" barrel, I bought one of those recently, haven't had a chance to test for accuracy tho.

Thank you for the reply.

Is it safe to say that all SOCOM 16" are mid-length gas systems? (its not noted on the radical arms listing what gas system it is).
