Apologies I have not been on much since our move.
It occurred to me I had not put these up yet.
These very light rifles came out about 16+ years ago. These bantam weight rifles, only weigh in at 4 lbs 7 ounces empty, they almost feel like toy guns, but shoot like champs in my experience with 55 gr fmj as long as you stick to brass cased ammo. Ideal for teaching a child eager to learn the AR or anyone who has issues lifting a full size rifle. Quite pricy when they came out, MSRP was $1700, the price dropped after Bushmaster bought them out. Here is my 97 with a Bushmaster Carbon 15 pistol with arm brace.
