I purchased My RRA Elite Opertor 2 in January 2012. I just got the chance to pick it up and it is 10000% worth the weight. As my first ar-15 I am incredibly happy. Just wanted to throw in my 2 cents for anyone interested in one, you will NOT be upset.

Took her to the range today and needless to say I will need a couple more of those 420rd cans of xm855.... Running a vortex sparc with 2x magnifier and a magpul RVG. Next range visit I will try and get some pictures.

I'm not trying to be funny...but are you saying it is worth the extra weight because 8lb is a bit heavy? Or did you mean worth the lead time?

I too love my EO2.  I have a BCM Mid length, a Daniel Defense V7 and my RRA EO2 - If SHTF, Im taking the RRA.  I couldnt be more pleased.  RRAs tolerances are tighter, the bolt action is far smoother and the accuracy is better.

Crowbar4, that is a nice looking rifle! BCM and DD are very well regarding companies. So is RRA but I'm surprised you'd go with RRA with a SHTF scenario! How did you color the RRA logo?

I too love my RRA LAR-8's.
I have the 16" LAR-8, the old Bushmaster Bar-10, and a RRA LAR-8 20" upper that I run on the bushmaster.
I had these guys do some coating on the BCG to help with reliability and cleaning.
Very happy with it.

Medical bills forcing the sale of the 20" upper, but i still get to keep my 16".

A toothpick, some red testors paint, some enamel thinner and a paper towel.

Dip the toothpick in the testors paint.
Make sure you to heavy to make sure the whole roll mark is filled.
Use a business card and run over the logo to remove the excess
Let sit for about 2-3 hours
Dip paper towel in paint thinner and LIGHTLY wipe over the roll mark until the logo is cleaned up. You don't want to press down and remove the paint from the inside the roll mark.
Use some gun cleaner/clp to finish it up.

Lasts a long time, almost permanent.  Waaaay better than crayons.

Probably goes without saying, but I left it out:

Make sure you clean the area first so its free of oil, etc.  I just wiped it down with an alchohol pad.

Yeah...I probably wouldn't have thought of that. Maybe after the fact.
