I was looking at BCM recce uppers and saw one that caught my eye. Which was the BCM BFH 16" Mid Length Upper Receiver Group w/ VTAC TRX 13" Handguard. Then i kept looking at all the other recce uppers and did not find one that i liked as much that was in my price range as the upper with the 13" VTAC until i found the BCM Standard 16" Mid Length (LIGHT WEIGHT) Upper Receiver Group w/ VTAC TRX 11" Handguard. Then i thought am i really going to lose any performance with the light weight barrel? I'm just going to be punching paper and trying to get a coyote here and there. So why not go lighter?

I know that there is a lot of post about this probably on here and different websites but i was just curious to see what you guys think.
