How much do the PRI free float tubes weigh.  Im thinking its less than a DD or Troy railed forearm.  I'm particularly concerned with the rifle length, but its nice to know what the shorter tubes weigh too.

Due to the large amount of metal near the barrel nut and rails, the PRIs actually weigh more than the DD or LaRue in their original configuration.
