I actually just swapped mine over.  For some reason I was having reliability issues with the aluminum upper and the CAV lower. I swapped the Carbon upper and put it on the CAV lower and it runs like a champ (must have been tolerence stacking or something because the aluminum upper runs great on the carbon lower and all other aluminum lowers).

I like the combination and it is very light (sorry don't have pics or an official weight).  My wife has claimed it as her own.

That is pretty cool.  I might just do that with my Cav II

Im guessing it will be under 5 lbs with the iron sights.
