Dude, You Got Too Much Crap on Your AR-15, Pt 104:33

What makes the perfect AR-15? Probably staying focused on its purpose and outfitting the gun accordingly. And yet so many screw this up, putting on heavy and unneeded accessories and components on their AR-15s. A huge tenet of TNP is lightweight, high speed systems. Weight is almost always critical. With an eye towards SAWC, your AR-15 should remain as paired down as possible, especially in man portable systems (ie you are carrying it, not a vehicle). Reasons for the “too much crap” (which usually means too much WEIGHT) syndrome are discussed with ignorance, movies, video games, and the need for group acceptance taking some blame. Then a component by component approach is suggested with again a focus on POU. Another Nutnfancy original series, this is Part 1.
