Weight of this weapon is 8lbs and 12 ounces.
Not light weight, but the balance on it is so good I would have guessed it was 7lbs.

Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.
I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

Not exactly svelte, but not horrible. The reason I asked about weight is that I just finished building a 16” with a LPVO that weighed in at 8.1 pounds and wondered how it compared. It also seems well balanced.Originally Posted by Stickman

very nice! for my 16" do all I went with a CA CM4 with a rt6 atop. I couldn't be happier with it, very accurate and thus far has been utterly reliable. The only other 16" I own is a 6520 but not quite the same flavor

Did you go with a fixed stock, or opt for a carbine stock?very nice! for my 16" do all I went with a CA CM4 with a rt6 atop. I couldn't be happier with it, very accurate and thus far has been utterly reliable. The only other 16" I own is a 6520 but not quite the same flavor

Nice one. I’d be happy with it.
A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

carbine b5, I'll post a pic
I had the cerakote the barrel, swapped out for the colt buffer tube but they did a real nice job on mine and it's a laser. My range is only a tad shy of 400 but with the rt6, it's a simple and predicable point and shoot.
Of note, I've not tried any 75 or 77gr yet (these barrels, per Corrie, like those weights better) but with 55gr she's boooooringly accurate
