Okay, so I may be leaving California. That means an AR becomes a bit more useful, and I'm thinking of selling off a number of guns including a Mini-14.
I have a 20" HBAR already, if I want better velocity and accuracy in return for weight and size.
If I want a carbine for practical purposes (HD, maybe a tactical class, etc.), what can I expect from a lightweight 16" with a standard handguard?
Does it heat up in a few shots like the Mini? Is it good for 2 MOA? Will I have to let it cool after 10 shots?
I'm thinking about a practical and inexpensive upper for carbine applications, not a rifle replacement. I don't want to throw money at it, and I could just keep the Mini if it won't be an improvement.
Should I get a heavy 16" instead? Keep the Mini? Thoughts?
