Quoted: One pound does not seem like it would make that much difference. Thanks for the information.

A 20" Gubment profile feels as light and fast as a 16" barrel after you screw around with a 20" HBAR for any amount of time.
In true ARFcom fashion, I have both
. If I plan on doing anything more active than sitting at a bench, the M16A2 uppered rifle gets the nod. I'm even thinking of getting my HBAR turned down under the HG's because of the weight. A Government profile 20" A2 (or A3 in your case) balances
PERFECTLY, IMO.
I have plans for another one or two 20" Gubment profile rifles because they just feel right and they shoot really well.

BTW, you aren't going to notice too much of a difference in recoil. Since it still has the rifle gas system, it will still be pretty gentle. The lighter rifle (gubment profiled one) will pop a
little harder into your shoulder, but it's nothing a 10 year old coudn't handle.
