    Default What does your AR Weigh?

    I'm just curious..

    I weighed mine today..

    just under 8lbs unloaded.

    a PMAG with 30 rnds of Federal weighs 1lb 1.5oz (according to my scale)

    and my optic weighs 1lb 3oz.

    Grand weight in at 10lbs 4.5oz loaded with sighting system on it.

    5.6 unless you're on the receiving end, then it tops out @ 62gr.

    If it's too heavy, go to the frickin' gym. I like an AR with a little bit of weight to it (just like my girls ).
    Now the POF is a heavy gun for an AR, but they shoot great. It seems the whole "weight" thing with the AR's has gotten to be a beauty shop drama. Pretty sure Rob from Bowers Tactical has everyone beat with the lightest one, but he built it intentionally that way. I care less how heavy/light it is...I want the damn thing to run like a top.

    Mine- being made by POF (not known for being light) comes in around 9lbs empty with my EOTech. I don't mind though, I love it! Or in the words of Boris the Blade/Bullet Dodger: "Heavy is good, heavy is reliable, if it does not work, you can just beat them to death with it."

    Anybody have actual weights?? Im curious to see where I sit among the realms...

    I dont have a bunch of "cool guy" shit on it..Just the essentials, and plan to go to a slightly lighter optic here soon...Aimpoint H-1.

    So I'm hoping to stay 10lbs or under at full operational weight.

    Given...I'll probably throw a surefire on a weapon mount...but...I can shoot for 10lbs.

    Mine weighs enough to sink to the bottom of a lake in a terrible boating accident.
