oh, I was thinking that the price of the hooker is partially based on their weight. they way to much you pay less. :laffs:

Ok this build is taking shape slowly. 

I found out about this barrel just poking around on Faxon's site. Its only 1.37lbs compared to 1.19lbs for a true pencil barrel. Its actually lighter then some other brand barrel manufacturers in a pencil profile. I know im trying to save weight but i decided to go with this. This is a badass barrel.

Thanks 98

That Gunner profile is awesome - great combination of weight in the right places, but still lightweight.  Great choice.

hookers, blow, barrels... now the decision on what the spend more money on.

Barrels, once you got guns you can acquire the other two ?

hey guys, wasn't there a lightweight lower that had some cutouts in some locations such as the magwell to make things lighter? trying to think who made that, but it's not coming to me.

I dunno if it was this place,but they sure do have some nice stuff...although they are mostly sold out the recovery is only about 3 weeks out...check em out they have ar 308 uppers/lowers too    Wash

Battle Arms Development has a lightweight set with machined areas, as well as V-Seven Weapons Systems...

lightening up a rifles is always a good thought, but when I look at them all I see is places I would spend extra time cleaning the dirt out of. that and the extra cost over something a little more simple just make me want to work on my arm muscles instead. still pretty cool.

Build project was put on hold for a while. I have a lower my buddy picked up for me at a show.

Im not sure if I want to buy a seperate upper and use a separate lower. 

If i buy a matched receiver set it will be Battle Arms Developmentl :drool: . I know that blows my budget then but what the hell:thumbup:

You have noooooo idea how much I'm holding back... and it's killing me not to share. 

When this comes out, you guys are going to flip dafuq out. 

Then v2.0 will make you lose your shiit.
