Thanks Deaj. I've been toying with the idea of switching out the Larue handguard for the Vtac of similar length. Also getting rid of the Eotech combo for an Aimpoint or Acog and the Troy VFG cause it's only there for hand position. With those changes it might be able to drop a pound. I've had the rifle for a couple years now and it's incredibly reliable. There has been a couple hiccups with reloads, it's only seen maybe a couple hundred factory rounds.
