Is there a finishing “cap” for the size of carbon fiber tube you found? Something to cover the front end of the tubing. What’s your plan there?

What do you mean? I wasn't planning on putting anything over the end of the tube, just use it as is for a basic handguard, in the same style as the kaw valley and wiland pcc handguards, just with a big enough diameter to accommodate the gas tube to keep mine a semi auto.

Does anyone have a direct comparison as to how much more one would weigh with a regular aluminum lower and parts kit including Larue MBT2S compared to one with a TN arms carbon fiber lower and a New Frontier poly LPK?

I'm looking at the Solo 300 upper, Shaw port-less barrel and a KAW PCC handguard with a KAK buffer tube and Farrow tech "stock"

I have a spare PA 3x micro-prism in an ADM mount, so I'm hoping it would still be under 5 lbs.

There's a database of a lot of ar-15 parts with weights so you can get a close estimate of any parts combo you want, it's located here but you gotta have a gmail account so you can view the spreadsheet.

Guy is selling a riverman gun in the classifieds.

Bolt action AR.

Took the pictures from the ad maybe there’s something useful here.

Looks like the shop closed up to reopen next year.

I am seeing mbr10 on the side…. Maybe an ar-10? It definitely looks like it needs to go on a diet.
