One of the truths of combat is ...
Every time combat gets closer, you want something lighter and more maneuverable; carbines and smg's begin to displace rifles.
Combat moves back to being hilltop to hilltop and maneuverability isn't as important as the ability to reach out and touch someone; longer (heavier) barrels, magnified optics.

What do you guys think of my carbine?

Im still waiting on my DD light holder with a Streamlight PolyTac LED. Also have a YHM can at the dealer waiting on the stamp.
I thought it was a nice light carbine until I handled my buddies new DD middy with a Lite rail yesterday.....:(

Two years ago I dropped all VFGs except a stubby tangodown grip on one gun.
All my other more current builds have none or a CSM handstop.
Just buy doing this saves alot of bulk that causes fatigue.
I also don't like how Vltor quit including the non storage compartment pannels with their stocks.

I have only personally owned one AR-15, a Colt 6530 that an uncle gave me as a gift. I never jumped on the M4 profile band wagon and for a semi-automatic carbine an HBAR is just obsured.

I am looking at buying my second AR after all these years, either a DDM4V3 LW or V5 LW or even the BCM LW Middy. There are some great options out there for factor guns these days.
