So a friend at work has got interested in ar10 style rifles but has not found what he wants in a ready made rifle I guess.
He wants to now maybe build one and wants to make a light(ish) 243 winchester ar patern rifle. All the ones it seems are heavy barrel varmint rifles. So considering having a barrel made by black hole weaponry in likely 16 or 18 inch. Got a couple questions...
Gas length? Mid or carbine? (Plan on calling BHW in the am to pick their brains)
Is an adjustable gas block a good idea?
Any body have a a rifle with a light barrel profile that's weighed it? Or even standard
This will be hunting rifle mainly coyote and deer. Slick side upper or fa and dust cover? Can you get just a dust cover upper?
Any other quirks with these in non standard 308 calibers?
I'm sure there is more but that's it for now
