Meh, shooting .223/5.56 out of anything less than a 16" barrel makes the ballistics of the bullet that of a .22LR on crack.
Once you get to 16" the bullet travels at the velocity that it is intended and starts to tumble when it impacts, which is what makes it so deadly.

well you can thank your bleeding heart ignorant liberal politician for that...
remember all of those "saturday night specials" handguns?
they were made cheap so EVERYONE could afford a firearm. but of course they were labelled as junk guns and now are virtually illegal or impossible to get.
the politicians think everyone has money to afford the costlier firearms. after all, they live in a separate world than you and me...

actually, adding a supressor is even better when you and another team member are trying to clear out a room and the muzzle flash can do a lot more harm.
plus trying to swing a 16"+ barrel through a doorway can be chancy
a nice shorty (7-10" barrel with a short suppressor) makes a great entry rifle.
or a surpressed MP5 or a P90...
