    Is the weight more in line with the R93 in this configuration?

    7lb 2oz probably a bit heavier than a R93 still?

    Probably....though info of the stock is scarce, some say it's slimmer through the trigger and fore grip.

    @BRADS where did you get 7lb 2oz from? The weight of the Carbonlight is 2.3Kg (5lb 1oz)

    From the info I have found Blaser R93's are 3.0Kg and up.

    Think you got lost? I was answering VC's Question about that R8 configuration shift14 referred too being closer in weight to the R93 than the normal R8, sorry if the thread crashing lost you.
