| Can't make up my mind on Bushy M4A3 16" Patrolman's Carbine or Lightweight A3 16". There was a thread I saw about this that I want to read and I have searched for it but have come up short. Anyone have this info? I know what you're thinking, but no, I can't afford both. |
Uhh you can attach a GL to the Lightweight profile - they have to notch the M4 to get that area to LW profile so they can attach the GL. The notch isn't needed if the barrel is already the proper diameter. |
1 + 1 = 2....duh...thanks.. that just clicked |

If you dont need more sustained, accurate fire at longer ranges... If you dont need the more rigid M4 barrel to defelect less when a suppressor is attached... If you dont have to have a milspec profile... If you dont use full auto... If you dont have magnification on your rifle... Get a light weight. Not many 1/7 lightweights out there though... |
Colt AR6520 |
Don't forget the 6530 as well. The Sporter Lightweight Carbine. Same barrel, just no bayonet lug.  Lonny |
