I would like to see the pros and cons on a 6 in barrel over a 5 in?

Besides weight, lol



A "standard" G20 is a 4.5 inch barrel. Going with that you gain just shy of two inches of sight radius (not a big deal with optics but makes a difference with irons obviously). Velocity wise you're gaining about 100fps when using the heavier bullets (above 180g).

Maybe not huge gains but a few ounces is worth the gains in my opinion, YMMV.

Nice chart!
Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.

If ya want a semi auto with some punch, build a 460 Rowland.
shoots well with a light compensator. and that 45 cal bullet moves right along
Not a boat anchor like a .50.
Spent most of my $$ on huntin, fishin & retrievin dogs, the rest I just pretty much wasted.

Now that's a round! Have just a little trigger time behind that caliber  ;) it gets into a practical woods defense round imo.. :tup:
