    Savage Lightweight Hunter could be considered.. 5.5lbs bare in .223. Fluted bolt, milled action, skinny barrel. Either Stainless/Synthetic, or Wood/Blue comes to same weight. Sweet wee shooters too. Feels like a .22 to carry and shoot.

    22 Terminator, 70 GMX at 31-3150, 4.26 lbs,



    Pig at 300 yards

    The barrel could be cut down to make it even more compact, currently 18" barrel, cutting it down to 11" would make over legal length

    Goodness knows how much velocity you would lose ?

    What's the purple thing in the underside of the stock? Is that where you stick the mag when you fold it up and the trigger guard goes into the magazine well? Or is that the thing you pull to release the sock and fold it up. I've handled one but hadn't noticed that particular bit

    I think the value of the AR-7 is it's weight (2 1/2 pounds) and compactability- you can throw it in a small daypack. It's not for survival, but more for handy plinking (rabbits, possums, etc) on a tramping/fishing trip. They were designed originally as a US Airforce crew survival rifle. They are sufficiently accurate at short ranges.

    A good light weight survival rifle IMO is a 500 nitro express nothing will be standing after a hit from that 😊
