Much Better.

What is the difference? Is it heavier? Shorter? and what are the advantages?

The bbl is turned down under the handguards. The extra at the end helps handle bbl flip while the narrower bbl under the HGs substantially decreases weight and improves balance considerably. Very nice. Mine is a Colt and shoots absolutely awesome.
My vote goes to Colt BTW but that is another topic.
As for choice of AR, whatever you like. Enough choice of flavors for virtually everyone.
FAL is a great choice for a .308 battle rifle. Easy to maintain and work on. Reliable. When I decided to look into Battle Rifles I was interested primarily in the HK91. After plenty of consideration I decided on FALs and now own 3.
