I'm set on 18" because it's the shortest barrel length that can do 2000J at 100m, which is the legal requirement over here. 20" (and longer) gets annoyingly long with a suppressor in my opinion, especially in some of the hunting stands I use. Ever since it's been legal to use cans, I haven't looked back so I'm hoping to make it work in the Grendel. As I already own several 30 cal cans (and am using one on a 6.5 Creedmoor bolt gun), it makes sense to put one on the Grendel. So not flow-through per se but kinda.
The bootleg gas carrier is not an option here in Germany it seems, even Brownells doesn't carry one. A regular will have to do. The extra power action spring from Sprinco however I can get (the red one, right?). Would that make sense with my setup? Also considering I might switch uppers to a .223 at some point? Not that it would kill me to switch springs as well if necessary.
what about sharps? they ripped off the rca gas key system like 1:1. might be able to find this part from a EU vendor somewhere (or something that is basically the exact same thing.)

just throwing it out there so you get some ideas as there are a few ways to choke the gas and they all pretty much work.
looked on brownells europe... found the RCA key
