Seems like a pretty heavy rifle/bipod rig to carry very far into the woods.
I think the "Wussification* of the American Male" is alive and well ...... when even an outdoorsy gun guy can't carry an 8 to 9 lb rifle ...... the GI's of our Grandparents' time schlepped 10 lb Garands and 16lb BARs across western Europe and the jungles of the south Pacific, on less food than you'll throw out this year ......


Part of the "hike in the woods"/hunting thing is to get some excercise ......... so quitcherbellachin', ruck up and get moving!


*Y'all ought to look up Kim Du Toit's essay .....
