The next one will be light. Low weight will be the theme. Below is the setup I am thinking of so far.
I like the fore grip because of barrel heat and squeeze activation for a dot scope. Add flip up sights, light adjustable stock, light barrel and the carbine is done!
Let me have your recommendations. I like the DPMS I have but there is nothing to compare.
--Name recommendations are welcome as well!

My commenters speak highly of Stag
I know nothing about ARs, But for light weight I would look at the Carbon-15 line.
Quad rails add a lot of weight. Troy Industries has a light weight rail that you can see in this video:

An alternative is the Kel-tec 223 SU-16C which weighs 5.8 lbs.

(Ok, so I'm a nutnfancy fan... sue me.)
T-Bolt, The Stag looks about right. Gotta find one to hold.
MSJ, I like the Kel-Tec as well. Fun stuff.
"squeeze activation for a dot scope"
There is no way I know of to "squeeze" activate an EOTech or Aimpoint.
If you are using an Aimpoint, don't worry about "activating" it; just turn it on and leave it on and replace the batteries once a year when you replace the ones in your smoke alarm. Even a comparative energy hog like an older ML2 will give 10,000+ hours of continuous operation with the illumination cranked to "7".
If you're using some Chicom budget dot, all bets are off.
