Hi, I'm looking to build an my first AR15, and I'd like to save as much weight as possible. I came across the V Seven Titanium GI Barrel Nut and was immediately intrigued. It's essentially a mil spec barrel nut made of Grade 5 Titanium with an ion bonded treatment (black). The cost is around $58, which is steep, but it is considerably lighter than a mil spec steel barrel nut. With all that in mind, I'd like to know if there are any other benefits to going with the V Seven's barrel nut over a regular mil spec steel barrel nut. Is it stronger and more reliable in the long run? Will it protect against heat and corrosion any better? Thanks for the input guys!
