Rifle Weights

As light as 5.5 pounds!

Total rifle weight will depend on your chosen configuration.  Most bare rifle weights (empty rifle with magazine and scope base) will fall between 6 and 7 pounds.  It must be noted that some configurations may exceed 7 pounds, and it is also possible to specify a rifle that will weigh under 6 pounds.  With thousands of possible combinations, we cannot offer an absolute weight guarentee.
