[QUOTE="incendiarycutlery, post: 10540653, member: 31359"] Yes, empty rifle in each case. 0.9kg for a loaded rifle or 0.2kg if you are comparing a bare L1A1 to a SUSAT’d L85. Fair point on the rail fore-end, so a latest issue L85 with optical sight might weigh nearly as much as an L1A1 without an optical sight which in my mind isn’t a fair comparison. Sure you could count all the bells and whistles that you can fit (and frequently are fitted) but if we’d kept the SLR we’d probably want said bells and whistles on that too. Since the base rifle is heavier the tricked-out version would also be heavier. [/QUOTE]
