Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Does Oly FAR-15 REALLY weigh 4.92 lbs?
Posted: 5/28/2001 7:38:35 AM EDT
Has someone actually weighed one of these? Not sure how it can weigh 4.92 lbs when the chopped down USAF CAR15 Survival Rifle weighed 5.4 lbs, the XM177 weighed 5.7 lbs and the current 11.5" barrel Colt Commando R0933 weighs 5.4 lbs (all weights empty).

When I add up the parts weights for a 16" A1 barrel telestock carbine I expect 5.8+ lbs, not 4.92 lbs.

That's weird.


I read it, but that almost stretches your imagination.
Sounds pretty impressive if they work.
