[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 3233026, member: 423"] I just ordered the new DS Arms aluminum bolt carrier group. Spec'd to weigh 5.21oz, that will shave 3.79oz off from the AIM Surplus LW steel BCG. Getting a new adjustable gas block also. With those the total should be just under 4lbs for the rifle, right at 4.5lbs with optic and loaded 10rd mag. Planning on a different brake, grip, charging handle, and optic mount, which should shave another 3.5oz. Once I get the funds for the Faxon pencil barrel, I'm hoping to break under 4lbs for the the whole rifle, loaded with optic. I need to get a picture. I'll do that when the BCG comes in. [/QUOTE]
