Not to derail your thread but I've seen two iterations of those: one with a blind magazine (no bottom metal) that specs at 5#10oz., and one with full bottom metal that specs a little more. Both are marked "XAR" on the fluted featherweight contour barrels. Please post a picture when yours arrives as I'm curious as to which you wind up with.
