The foregrip has been removed and the lazer light is now mounted at the back of the rail right in front of the magazine.
I acquired this (my first AR) rifle today. The previous owner says this:
Bushmaster .223 M4 lower and RRA 15" upper with loads of extra's. Its got a Daniel Defense M4 rail, rubber grips on the rail, folding front grip, TLR-2 light/laser combo, LMT night sites on front and back sites, Magpul handle/grip with a Hogue rubber grip over it, CAA stock cover, 6-pos stock, Vortex flash suppressor, and 5 mags.
My question is this, This thing is heavy! My brother and buddys m4's are much lighter, then again they both have 16 inch uppers, it seems that the weight is all in the front. Is it the barrel? I didnt like the folding vert grip in the front so I have removed it. Other than that I am loving the rifle. I will be testing it out this weekend.
My concern about the weight is not that it is HEAVY, but the fact that it feels unbalanced. I am ok with the overall rifle being a little heavier.
See I changed the synthetic on my 870 to wood to balance it out and I am much happier.
Can you guys suggest a stock that will help balance out the weight?
thanks.
