Variable,
That's an interesting suggestion, as I imagine both people could be co-owners/trustees of the trust. Good idea.
Bjorn,
For reliability, an 11.5" or 12.5" AR is hard to beat with the short AR's, as long as the barrel is made by a reputable manufacturer with the know-how on gas port diameter. Things start to get sketchy from there as you get into the 10" barrels, but some apparently are reliable with the right gas ports, gas system and recoiling parts balance, and ammunition. I can't recall having any malf's with all the 11.5" guns I've owned or used, and I have owned 3 different ones in the past. The only time I've seen malf's with a good 11.5" gun was with Russian ammo. The 10" guns are much louder as well, so I prefer to have some type of can or muzzle device on them that deals with sound, effectively increasing the barrel length to what an 11.5" or 16" would be.
