Thread: Lightest weight survival rifle

Savage Lightweight Hunter could be considered.. 5.5lbs bare in .223. Fluted bolt, milled action, skinny barrel. Either Stainless/Synthetic, or Wood/Blue comes to same weight. Sweet wee shooters too. Feels like a .22 to carry and shoot.

5lb and very compact.

And it's accurate and if i miss I have 29 more chances

How much does it weigh with the suppressor and 30 rounds?

22 Terminator, 70 GMX at 31-3150, 4.26 lbs,



Pig at 300 yards

The barrel could be cut down to make it even more compact, currently 18" barrel, cutting it down to 11" would make over legal length

Goodness knows how much velocity you would lose ?

But will it fit in a very little back pack

She took the little AR up the hill and I took the deer.

She's 4.

Cant remember. Will throw on scales when home

What's the purple thing in the underside of the stock? Is that where you stick the mag when you fold it up and the trigger guard goes into the magazine well? Or is that the thing you pull to release the sock and fold it up. I've handled one but hadn't noticed that particular bit

Brno singleshot in 300BLK with 12'' barrel & suppressor making total of 16'' with a modified ACE style side folding butt with a 2-7 Leupold on top with M2 turrets

I think the value of the AR-7 is it's weight (2 1/2 pounds) and compactability- you can throw it in a small daypack. It's not for survival, but more for handy plinking (rabbits, possums, etc) on a tramping/fishing trip. They were designed originally as a US Airforce crew survival rifle. They are sufficiently accurate at short ranges.

A good light weight survival rifle IMO is a 500 nitro express nothing will be standing after a hit from that 😊

Kel-tec, think they are about $1500 here?
