soon iam going to purchase my first ar15 rifle and iam getting myself a bushmaster 16 shorty or now since i saw it online i might get myself a bushmaster 16'' heavybarrel carbine but my question is, is it better to have a heavy barrel or a lightweight barrel i know that when i get my ar15 i will be going to the shooting range alot more then i was just shooting my cx4 and i will be putting atleast 100 maybe a 100 or more rounds threw the ar15. i wanted to get somethin somewhat small but but with a 16'' bbl. cause iam in a wheelchair and my balance is alittle off, not to much but if i try and shoot a rifle that is to long and to heavy my balance will throw me off with aiming, so if i decide to get either rifle with a heavybarrel either under handguards or entire barrel would it be a bad thing or is haveing a heavybarrel better. iv heard mixed opionions some say get a lightweight barrel others say get a heavybarrel, i have held the bushmaster 16'' shorty carbine and it feels pretty comfortable and it is an HBAR carbine i like it alot sights are nice feels nice in my hands but will i get a long time of use out of it if im going to get an ar15 i want to know that with the barrel it has i will get many years with minimal to no problems or any corrosion or rusting in the barrel so basically should i get one with a lightweight or heavybarrel
thanks alot
sencerely
