Lightweight Grendel - round 2
#1
Had originally assembled this last summer and took hunting in CO last November. Heavier than I wanted so I began looking for ways to shave weight. Ditched the original JPE railed gas block (8+ oz) for a PRI adjustable low pro and switched the mid-length Mk-10+ handguard for an extra length one. I still saved 4+ oz on the switch. She now weighs 6.5 lbs without optics. The LaRue mount with Viper PST and Burris red dot weigh 2 lbs. Still heavier than I'd like to lug in CO mountains. I'm looking for lightweight scope/mount for CO but I'll use the Viper PST/Burris combo for flatland hunting.

The Burris red dot is great! I was easily hitting steel silhouettes (upper body size) at 200 yds.

AA upper/lower
18" Satern Spartan Grendel
AA Mk-10+ extra length handguard
Geisselle SSA
MOE stock/grip
Warped Titanium brake (awesome!)
