What is the total weight of the MK19?

• A. 140.0 kg
• B. 151.6 kg
• C. 168.0 kg
• D. 180.0 kg

Answer: (B)

Total weight is the mass of the MK19 plus everything carried with it for operation and movement—the weapon itself, the tripod or mount, and the standard load of ammunition and any included accessories. When you include all of that, the setup becomes quite heavy. For the MK19, the published total with a full equipment and ammunition load comes to 151.6 kilograms. The weapon by itself is much lighter, but the tripod and the ammunition add up to reach that total. This is why the complete configuration weighs around 150 kg rather than just the gun’s bare weight.
