I was giving him the benefit of the doubt and assuming this was a case of not even knowing enough to know what question he should really be asking. "Rifle feels front-heavy, how do I fix?" is what I assumed the real question was.

Aye. No worries.
This OP has demonstrated a prior tendency to Unnecessarily foray far and wide in the weeds.

Mean Einstein.
That’s why crimes are a two part test. Act. Intent.
Thank You sir,
Why must you ruin every God damn thread I start?
I asked a question . A serious question . I am sorry that I even bothered.
Thank you for all that answered my question and Educated me.
it was just a question i had, Not knowing much about the barrel and the difference that being top heavy would or could have on the performance if any?
You don't need to respond.
It may have been a serious question but it was imo poorly asked.
What you wanted to know was not at all clear and led folks to guess what you wanted.
The more simple and clear your question/problem to be solved, the easier it is for folks who try to help...to help.

I will anyways. You ruin them on your own pretty well.
Hey man, calm yourself a bit there...
You didn't exactly come onto this forum with much grace, so safe to say some of us are reluctant to answer you or engage with you meaningfully.
Take the high road for a bit and you'll find that you will be just fine here. But if you go back to hurling offenses, then I assure you this won't continue to go well for you.
Also, your question was definitely confusing.
The same reason we do crossword puzzles the day before the answers come out.
Now really, you want us to believe you are smart enough to do a crossword puzzle without the answer key next to you? Oh sure.......
Well, google is our friend. And Einstein is a hero.
I'm playing devils advocate here but so many questions on this forum are poorly asked. More the norm than the exception I think. Your point is noted in the final sentence and is the best advice I have seen in this thread so far. As a matter of fact, that should pop up every time someone hits submit and ask if you REALLY want to hit SUBMIT
There is very often poor English and grammar skills on this forum too.
OP, Plan on developing thick skin and skipping the wise cracks. That is just going to happen around here. It will eventually get you to look at your posts before hitting submit more over time. (I know it does for me).
Research any fluted barrel well, I've had some cheap crap fluted HBAR barrels that did not perform well. Just cause a vendor calls it HBAR/FLUTED/Match barrel, does not mean it will shoot well. I learned this the hard way buying come Crap in my past. I just happen to have the best luck with solid HBARs. Read reviews.
Yup, look at barrel weights published and you can see up to 1lb difference between fluted and non fluted HBAR.
I'm not a big guy so I have noticed difference between shooting 16" HBAR offhand vs an M4 Profile 14.5" with pin/welded Brake or a 10.5" SBR which I can shoot for longer w/o fatigue. Throw an 8" steel suppressor on the end of that 16" (which I have done) and that will fatigue me even more. But heck, you can only shoot for so long before that suppressor gets hot anyway.

He may be able to be saved.
He might not survive the procedure though. As with most of medicine (IANAD), attitude has a lot to do with outcome.
Name calling does get old though. Kinda sophomorick. (See what I did there? Added a consonant...) What the L
Maybe ditch the muzzle device altogether and put a thread protector on it (they can be had in aluminum), or find an unthreaded barrel, like the Clinton Specials. I've heard that, for the absolute best accuracy, the best muzzle device is no muzzle device.

OP- If you started asking well worded, legitimate questions, we would be much quicker to forget that time (when you were brand spankin new) you tore into the clown and told him to "Goggle it Einstein". Unfortunately, you have a really bad habit of continuing to make rude and belittling comments towards fellow MDS'ers.
We all have a few people we don't get along with on this forum. The smart ones just stop agitating each other. Hell, one of the most knowledgeable AR15 guys within hundreds of miles has posted in this exact thread. Your snarky comments won't encourage him to offer you assistance. FWIW- I speak from experience, as he is the only MDS'er I have ever straight up burned bridges with.
Try taking some time off and come back with a better attitude. We can be a really friendly and helpful group of guys and gals.
Moral of the story is don’t pee in the punch bowl. Especially if you intend to drink from it ever again...
