Incursion is a really lightweight profile and weighing in at 1.52 lbs. More suited to the application you're looking at, but might wander/open when heated.
The fluted Lite barrel is only 1.74 lbs.
The Lite barrels I've used for several builds I helped some friends with ended up being really lightweight guns, lighter than my original 16" SOCOM-ish profile AA barrel, which wasn't bad at all.
You're looking at 3.5 ounces of difference, but the stiffness of the Lite fluted pipe.
If it were me, I would get the Lite.
If you want an ultra-light blaster, use a really light handguard, receivers, or CF tube.
Thanks for the info sir.
I had ordered the 16 inch lite maybe five mints after posting this.
I was going to wait but when AA told me it was in stock I said here please take my money.
It's already been shipped and tracking shows it landing friday.
Now just to send back this turd bca barrel tommorw when I get to town, I just don't see how BCA is turning a profit on these barrels with the trash they are putting out.
I know "you get what you pay for" but dang you think they could get a lil blaster/beater barrel right.
Short throat
Salts in the chamber treatment holding and scratching brass up badly
Gas port left of center
Feed ramps with big nicks in it and the extention was close to 1/8 inch out of position on my uppers m4 feed ramps.
Like I posted earlier I been a member here long enough to know better then buy dirt cheap and should have just went AA to start.
