We all complain how the ACR is heavy. Well lets all sit around and brain storm ways to make the ACR lighter. Who knows maybe bushy is watching and taking notes..lol. I will begin by inquiering about a lite barrel, I think the M4 profile is long played out. M4 profile makes sense in an M4. A lite barrel kind of like the SCARs would definitely help out the ACR shed some weight, specially at the nose were its heavy. I havent held one yet, but from what I keep hearing it must be a room clearing night mare. imagine trying to hold the weapon with your right hand only while you open a door with the other, there went your wrist!
Give your opinions on what parts of the ACR it can afford to shed some weight on.

, Although this is the norm in the military. LE threads on thin ice when it comes to ckiking doors. All humor aside, this is a carbine and it has the weight of a rifle, bushy needs to make some revisions to lighten the load. For most of the civillian users this is not an issue, half the time you shoot from a bench rest. But if bushy wants to be serious about govt contracts and that sort of thing, then they need to pay attention to this. I have faith the ACR will evolve into a great rifle, we all know the AR is still evolving.
