I wanted to field this question. What ways are there to practically lighten the AR-15? I know that one of the most common ways is to turn the barrel smaller, down to about .600" is about as small as I've seen it. Are there any other ways to help the weight situation? It's not that the gun is overly heavy, but the .223 doesn't kick that much either. I want my kids to be able to transport it themselves along with the ammo, earmuffs, targets, and shooting glasses. I believe they will feel better about transporting them themselves. These kids are NOT recoil shy, so that is not a factor. Please help me out?
