Looking to build a lightweight rifle.  I have most of the components, but need help w/a complete upper.  I know times are crazy now, but I want to be on the lookout for a complete upper setup that is both lightweight and accurate.  Any manufacturers come to mind that don't cost an arm and a leg?

PSA just had 16" uppers back in stock for $399 w/o CH and BCG. They actually stayed on the site and were available for a while. Hope that's a good sign. Standard profile stuff, not a LW barrel. How light weight are you trying to get?

I have a PSA lower & parts kit, but wasn't sure about matching it w/an upper.  I saw those upper available a couple of times, but didn't "pull the trigger."  They seem nice, but a little on the low end.  I was hoping 6-7lbs, but wanted a good barrel.  Would that add too much weight?

Gov't profile bbls are not anywhere near heavy. YMMV
