#4 Saw this this a.m. on Fox. The rifle weighs about 12 lbs. Chris Kyle had quite a bit of input into the development of this rifle.

#5 Ah yes, the TrackingPoint! You can also get a pair of glasses that talk to the scope and see what the scope sees. This means you can shoot by holding it around a corner or over a wall without exposing yourself. Have a look at their site.

#6 And when the batteries fail, will the shooter still be able to zero the weapon or has basic rifle marksmanship joined cursive writing ?
