Looking to build a lightwegiht AR-15 223 calling rifle. Would like for the rifle to be at or under 7.5-lbs all up so I figure 6-lbs for just the rifle. I've had a couple R-15 carbines in the past and like the look and feel but they ended up a about 1-lb to heavy. Anyone built something similair to what I'm looking for?
I would like to find a take off 18" R-15 223 barrel to use as I like the length and contour. Will probably use a forged lower and upper without F/A. Trigger will be a timney 3-lb with a standard lpk. What I am stuck on is a lightweight free float handguard (12" prefered) and stock setup. Looking for suggestions on these parts as well as if my goal of a 6-lb rifle is realistic?
