The lower has very little impact on function. The only component in the lower that has an impact on function is the weight of the buffer.

Most people use an H or H2 buffer in a carbine length system, and a carbine or H in a midlength. A 16" barrel with a regular fixed stock would be a carbine buffer solution.
