Almost there now, have to wait on a few more weeks for some main parts. I hope just a few....

JDM lower receiver 100% built now
JDM 14" tube hand guard
JDM Picatiny rails one 6" three 3" for the hand guard
Magpul UBR, MIAD Grip & AFG all in FDE. I stippled the AFG already
Slash's CAR10-HX buffer with modified AR-10 spring.
Smith Enterprises Vortex flash hider
Phase 5 Tactical EBRv2/308 extended bolt release
POF ejector port door
RADDLOCK magazine release button for California b.s. magazine law. This button can be easily converted to work like your non Ca. b.s. law button with a simple tool
JP EZ trigger with safety selector.
JP Low Mass Carrier .308
JP bolt carrier completion kit
JP low profile adjustable gas block
JP mid length gas tube
Fulton Armory selected lower parts and upper port door pin, C clip & spring too
BCM Gunfighter Mod 3 Charge Handle

What is ordered but I'm waiting.
JDM upper .308 Two more weeks so they say
JP Supermatch barrel 16" stainless .308, add 50 bucks for their black Teflon coating hope that looks good. Didn't want the standard polished stainless finish look.
JP Enhanced Bolt .308
JP parts hopefully only 3 more weeks now like they say.

It's not like a rail type hand guard I don't think. It will take a 3" picatiny on top and on both sides at the very front. It will take at least 12" of picatiny on the bottom I think. I never weighed it before but you asked the question so I thought oh yeah I'll go see. But with 6" rail and the AFG and barrel nut it weighs 1.25 lbs. Without barrel nut 0.75 lbs. I remember when I first got it I thought hey I cant hardly know I'm holding something it's so light. It is extremely light with nothing attached to it. $219 from JDM I paid 200 & no tax at gun show. Picatiny rails are rape though.

Affirmative, but I did use a trigger pull scale and just hung the hand guard from the hook. Like I said the hand guard tube all by itself is exceedingly lightweight.
