In looking at 14.5 or 14.7 inch complete uppers that state they are M4 configurations, do I assume they are carbine or mid length gas systems?

I ask because I am running across descriptions on different websites that only say M4.

How will a 1/8 twist function in a 14.5/14.7 middy?  I do not want a 1/9...1/7 is ok though.  Just curious about a 1/8 in that length.

a 1:8 twist would be fine and 14.5/14.7 barreled uppers are generally carbine gas systems unless otherwise noted...

M4 configuration would elude to a government profiled 14.5-16" barrel with a carbine length gas system with a 1x7" twist.
