CMMG makes one.
But, no stock at AEI as:
-unless the DOS changes it's policies, we can't get export licenses for 14.5" barrels.
-and, we're not taking any CMMG orders until we get the 16"ers we've had on order for too long, (not CMMGs fault).

Why would you want a 14.5 mid-lenght when theres 16" mid-lenghts???

Well,no,thats a good reason,its just that if your going for a mid-lenght gas system the 16" has a more balanced look to it,as well as other benefits,
IMHO,14.5 looks good on a carbine lenght system.

Right now I can't decide between a 14" mid length or a 11" carbine. I want to shoot tac rifle at TMSA next year with it but most likely nothing over 100m with it. I know that I want it flat topped and railed back up irons with a Acog type sight. So I am thinking that short and fast handling will suit my needs(wants) better.
As far as i know the 16" ers are not the right length for a bayonet...I know the 14.5" is. Not only that but i find the 14.5" much more aesthetically pleasing. Obviously its in the eye of the beholder. bayoing paper zombie targets is also good practice.

Agree,with you on the 14.5 carbine being more "aesthetically pleasing".I tried a STAG carbine with a 16"(great rifle,plan on getting a 16" mid-length when they make'em) and it just didn't seem right.Like to much barrel out there,I don't know maybe its just me.

You could always have someone shorten a 16" midlength by 1-1/2". All you need is a caliper and a lathe with parting, facing and threading toolbits. Wouldn't take long.
I am confused. Do you want a midlength gas system with a 14.5 barrel? I'm not sure if that would function as well as car length in the shorter barrels. You can always adapt midlength handguards and a use low profile gas block on a car system to make it look like a midlength.
