Weight of total gun question

[Nytcrawler93]

I know the flames are coming but I have a question about the total weight of my build when complete. I am building a Spikes 14.5" mid-length pencil barrel with a vortex permed to make it 16". Stock is a CTR and mil-spec LPK. Unloaded, would that get under 6.36 lbs? MOE mid-length forearm. I am guessing just a shade over 6lbs, is that pretty close?

I got 6.08 lbs here (http://vuurwapenblog.com/calc.html)

edit: that's not including a rear sight.

I just built a very similar build and it was right around six and a half # unloaded with just a matech BUIS.

edit* the calculator shows my rig should be 6.3#

8.33lbs loaded 7.24 unloaded, not too bad. Not great but not too bad.

Thanks for the responses. I thought it would be close to 6lbs without rear sites or optics. I'll take 6.3 unloaded. I did not know what difference the mid-length would make on a pencil barrel if any or if there was something I was not thinking about. I am not looking to go uber lightest of the lightest but I wanted a quick handling, soft shooting, moderately light start before I got stupid with adding stuff.
