Am changing out the barrel on my lightweight AR, basically just tinkering, want to get a faxon pinned flash hider model to be just a little shorter. It's got an aero pencil barrel now, point is a very light carbine - SBR feel that is a legal rifle basically..
Looks like 2.4 ounces difference.. not sure I 100% trust the specs but theoretically its it's not much and the extra weight of the gunner is by the receiver anyway.. but then pencil is lighter and I want light, and I dont think you can do any harm to a pencil barrel semi auto anyway (other than loss of accuracy when hot)...
Anyone already debate this and have an opinion?
