Hello to everyone I hope not to roll eyes with some questions but I had a real tough time deciding which area to ask these questions in. Seeing this area really knows what is going on with rifle cal. sbr/pistol setups I decided to hit you guys up first. A few things to know I live in a evil state that has accepted the awb after the feds gave it up, also I cannot use any NFA options here, not allowed at least to my knowledge. So here is my deal, 1 lower new build thoughts are to keep it very light A3 upper with 11.5 inch upper with a perm attached ext. I was thinking about using a Gemtech Outback 2 dummy can (remember tech I cannot use any type of FH like the xm177 ext.) Do you guys think this would be lighter than a pencil barrel setup ? Building full size AR SA is kidde play for me have done many. I have not handled any sbr/pistol uppers before so I dont know how they feel in the ar set up except for the m4 carbine at 14.5 in. My smg exp comes from Mp5s in short form FA, but I will never be able to have one of my own here. I was reading a post last week about pistol AR with VFG as a title 1 firearm if it was over 26in that rally confused me . I look forward to your comments/help I am in no hurry just wanted to sketch out the plan. TY Doc.

Ok doing a little more looking on my own I came up with a few weights for 14.5 in. and up. Does anyone here have a 11.5 inch barrel they could weigh ? HB or A1 profile. Thanx Mark

Well I am going back and finishing my 9mm build first, just got done cutting down the profile on the barrel to lighten it up. Will post pics when done in the pistol cal forum. Mark
