[quote:Anonymous Coward 79039270:MV80OTMwOTA0XzkwMTM3NTM1X0EzRDAzNzA0] Quick way to a solid AR that is shorter and lighter: Go to a shop and grab a complete pistol lower with an sba4 brace. If they don't have one, try a gun show for the same. If not there, order online from Anderson arms, complete pistol lower. Shipped to a local shop. Get on palmetto state armory site and purchase an 11.5 upper - 1:7 twist. Snap them together, upper and lower when they arrive. Pickup a sig Romeo 5 XDR red dot - it's the model with a AAA battery and circle over dot option. Then grab an informed wml light to attach to the end of the rail. Finally grab a vickers sling or magpul ms4 sling depending on how you want to attach it and what the rail options are from the factory. You now have a solid battle rifle covering all the basics that is lightweight and easy to maneuver without shooting the big fireballs out of the front like a 9-10" will. [/quote]
Original Message
Okay gun guys (and girls), I’m looking to get into an AR-15. Husband is an AK guy but he’s found an Armalite AR-15 LTC that weighs 6lbs unloaded. It has a 16” barrel. He said that was pretty much the lightest AR but that GLP was filled with gun knowledge people and see what someone here says.
Anyway, I’m looking for a lightweight AR that’s as short as possible without having to go through NFA tax stamp hassles. My price range is $900-$1200; $1200 being pretty much max.
I’m trying to get advice before I go to purchase because I’m sure they’ll think I’m just a dumb girl and they’ll try and sell me what they have instead of what I want: a short and light AR.
