Reising movable parts weight

[makeintosch]

Does anybody know what is the weight of the bolt+striker+cocking handle in Reising SMG-s?

This is going to be a complicated question, given the relative scarcity of Reisings out there.

Are you trying to slow it down by adding to the reciprocating mass? I’ve tried that and wasn’t able to get a significant reduction before it started inducing malfunctions.

I am only curious about their weight and how it compares to other delayed blowback guns.

Ok, here's what I found, now that I'm home and can pull it out of the safe:

Action bar: 6.8 oz
Bolt: 6.5 oz
Hammer: 1.9 oz
Total: 15.2 oz

Thank you!

I was pretty certain moving this question to NFA was more likely to find an actual owner to answer this.
