What is the difference between a standard and a lite ar 15 ?
The lite has a pencil barrel so that's about it.
No, its less filling!
thanks for the info new to ar 15 s
The lite recievers are made from carbon fiber not steel so they are lighter as well,
No standard AR receiver is made from steel, it is aluminum. And the "lite" does not refer to the receiver being made from Carbon Fiber. As far as I know there is only one maker of CF receivers, and they're not labeled "lite."
Also, I don't know if there is a standardized specification for a "lite" AR. But most likely, as said above, it primarily refers to the barrel contour.

I think like you said, the barrel. I have a few Colt H-Bar guns, (Heavy Barrel) and see a few that is stamped Colt Sporter Light weight.
