    Okay I used the search function and it looks like I can expect .75 - 1 moa type accuracy from the stainless barrel. Going with that with the ion bond finish.

    So I'm settled on either one of these......

    Obviously the regular KMR is out of stock. Any idea how long until they come back in stock? Is the regular KMR worth the wait and extra $? My thought was with the little heavier barrel that the extra weight savings might be worth the wait and $ to help offset some of the weight.

    I personally, would not spend the extra money on the reg KMR. You, gain an ounce or 2, but the finish is stronger on the alpha and you save some money.

    Good to know about the finish. Never even thought that they might be different.

    I personally prefer the standard KMR over the Alpha. They're purposefully lightweight handguards, so I want the lightest one. But if the Alpha is in stock, might as well grab it.

    If you think you'd rather save a few ounces later on, it's not as though you couldn't buy a standard and sell your Alpha, or even post yours up for trade for a standard here. KMR's are easy to swap, and a lot of people like the Alpha better anyway.

    How long are they generally out of stock? I have to wait for my purchase permit to get renewed for the lower anyway so I don't have to have it now.
