Speaking Of Weight

Changing from A2 handguards and an aluminum USGI magazine to the M5 RAS and a gen 3 PMAG adds 13.2 ounces to an M16A4.

That's a bit of an abbreviation.

That's an M5 RAS, 2x 5-rib panels, 1x 11-rib panel, some Magpul rail cover and a vertical grip.

The bare RAS should only add 7 oz.  But that'd leave your hands exposed to the cheese-grater effect of the p-rails.
