BudsGunShop.com - 2 inch vs 2.5 Inch Barrel on the Public Defender
-
-
Does anybody know if the 2.5" barrel is worth the nominal weight, length, and extra money vs the 2" barrel Public Defender? I can' t find any reviews that distinguish between the two versions. It seems like if accuracy is improved, it might be worth it. Thxs in advance.

It is in my opinion David. The nominal velocity increase (Approx. 25 to 40fps depending on load) due to better powder burn is beneficial to the short barrel pistols. There are a few specialty loads that use faster burning powders made specifically to enhance performance in short barreled firearms. It is not a huge difference but a difference non the less. (Depending on the twist, that extra half inch could make a difference in bullet stabilization as well).
