As a side note someone commented that it was too heavy so I weighed it, and a BLR 30/06 take down and a CZ 550 Full wood carbine as a comparison and all 3 were within 100grams of 4kg. The Ruger and the BLR will both fit into a back pack....

lol I wonder if you have my old one, last there digit of serial number 472? if so Robbie T double checked I really wanted to cut it up before he fitted can
