Guys, I am going to get in on this deal as well, but thought I would ask your opinions first. I sent Scott an email, and plan on calling him, but thought I would ask you guys as well.
I was hoping to pick up a lightweight upper for carrying and hunting. I think this would be the route to go. I am trying to decide between a 16" or 18" with target crown. I am debating between weight and muzzle blast.
Do you know what one of these completed uppers would weigh compared between 16" and 18" barrels? Also, I shot a buddy's gun that had the Clark lightweight carbon fiber handguards, and it really felt good. How much does your handguard weigh? I am trying to decide if it would be of any gain to switch the handguards.
Finally, what would be the difference in weight reduction with the fluted barrel?
Thanks and I look forward to your response. I plan on call Scott tomorrow or Thursday.
