Hi, im about 6ft tall and weigh 140 pounds. I'm debating whether or not to get 176cm or 181 ar7's. I'm leaning toward the 176 since im light for my height but let me know what you guys think. Thanks!

I'm 6'2" 165 pounds and have the 176. They dont feel too small or unstable but I feel like I could be just as comfortable on the 181. You will be fine either way but if youre leaning towards the 176 go for it. They will not be too small.

 if u do almost entirely rails u could do a 176. but otherwise 181. for the longevity argument, you wont get any smaller, so the bigger size makes sense.

I have the 176 And Im 5'9'' 170lbs. If your just light go 176. but if your growing still go 181.  Im 50 park50 allmnt and I kinda wish I had 181 for high speeds. Other than that the 176 does everything I ask.

ok i think i might go with the 176, i think if i got a more all mountain or powder ski i would defiantly go for 181 though
