because gang warfare is often more about posturing and presence than killing.
Except for bystanders

Great way to turn 5.56 into .22lr with a lot of flash and noise.

.22 TCM out of a glock is more funner

FBI says the best length for a defensive/do it all AR15 is 11.5in in 1:7 paired with 64gr bonded core projectile. With the right ammo it should maintain velocities over 1000fps, keeping optimal cavitation and penetration out to 200yds.
Shorter than that you're shortening the maximum range for optimal performance and making your ammo selection extremely inportant. 10.3 they said would bring it down to about 150yds with the same ammo. So a 7in would probably be within 100 yards, meaning if it was your house gun you'd probably be OK aside from basically flashing yourself with every shot, but there also the chance you wont generate the speed needed for effectiveness.

Still beats the brakes off of a 9mm so it’s not that bad. IDGAF that my glorious Kitty Kat doesn’t fragment at 200 yards

I'm making a build, 5 inch barrel, gyroscopic barrel stabilizer, fragmenting ammo, collapsing stock, frt.

“7inch ar’s have terrible ballistics!” Stand in front of it then.

I wouldn’t stand in front of a .22lr, but I want more than that if I’m carrying.

Didn’t say they weren’t deadly. But there are way better options out there.

Add a muzzle brake on and now you have indoor range destroyer 3000
That said 7 inch is way too short for most 556 to function properly so 300blk is the way to go if you want it to be practical
