I don't know what all the fuss is about. You gotta carry it, you know when it's too heavy. My first M16 was 203! I also carried my ammo(40mm and 223), 40mm flares and smoke, extra barrel for the M60, several hundred rounds for the 60, flak vest, water, poncho, poncho liner, sox, draws, smokes, skid-lid, rations, and extra pair of glasses and my std survey gear. Then there was the extra stuff. Back then, we didn't have lazers, lights or optics. My current AR has the necessary stufName:  Roxienow.jpg
