[QUOTE="KurtM, post: 3831673, member: 6064"] Yes I did misconstrue your comment Seadog, I'm sorry. As for Titanium as a carrier material, I think you are thinking of a different material Cseverns. Titanium is very light and it weights just a touch more than an aluminum carrier. No top tier manufacturer would use one unless it was an all out competition firearm. The problem with Titanium as a carrier material is they tend to flame cut at the back of the bolt and wear where the bolt tail goes through the back of the carrier. Suddenly your rifle will stop functioning usually around 1500-2500 rounds. Titanium is NOT a good carrier material. [/QUOTE]
