1894Weights of Mauser Actions
Does anyone know the weight of an 09 Argentine action with bottom metal?
Is there any weight reduction in small ring mexican or in intermediate big ring with small ring thread actions?

CustomstoxJust weighed an Argentine and it went 2 # 12oz. on a baby scale. The small ring mexican is lighter but mine have barrels on them so I am not sure how much.
