It is a lot lighter than the FAL and HK 91 clones. It also is a lot easier on brass than the HK (the flutted chamber really stresses the brass in an HK 91). I spent a lot of time making this decision and looked at all the candidates out there.
My $0.02.

I agree with Troy on the weight issue. My HK SR9 without the glass is a whopping 13+ pounds. That's quite a bit of weight for anything else besides being a perimeter or bench rifle.
BTW Troy, your new signature is sad but made me bust up laughin' bigtime.
