I am guessing that you can get down to somewhere around 6-7" to physically allow room for threading with a pistol port gas block in place but do you really want to go that short?
I know there was a recent debate of why go with a 10-10.5" when shooting only subsonic loads with what is essentially a pistol cartridge but I think the shortest length discussed was maybe 8".
I'll try to find it.
