    A word of caution: you're going from a moderate inconvenience to stupid lightweight. You might want to tie a string around it to make sure it doesn't float away. It sounds like you made some great choices.

    Thank you. After I looked it up, I see an aimpoint micro coming in at 3.7 ounces with mount, the EOTech EXPS-3 comes in at 8oz even.

    I suppose I'll just leave my heavy smokes home and keep the EOTech, should make it about even

    You have chosen... wisely.

    So long as you can afford it, overkill is underrated.
