OP
Depends on which one, they can range from 3 or 4 kilos to maybe 8 or 9 depending on type, cartridge and length.
It's the Barret .50 BMG (Browning Machine Gun, which is the same round the guns on the P-51 WWII aircraft shot. 50 caliber, or 1/2 and inch) sniper rifle. The muzzle brake ("arrow shaped end") is used to disperse the gas pressure behind the bullet prior to its exiting the entire barrel. Without it, it would be like dropping a 30 kilo weight on your shoulder, where with it makes it 1/3 or that.
Also, the weight depends on the sniper rifle. The one you showed is a very large rifle and weighs a lot, but it is not the exact same as the one in MGS4, although that is also a .50.
To compare a .50 Browning rifle round with some other rifle rounds, the 4th one in is the 7.62X39mm which the AK-47 is chambered for, and the 5th one in is the 5.56X45mm which the M-16/M4 is chambered for.
Now the .50 BMG is all the way left.
For what purpose? Dropping a target, power, accuracy, ammo capacity, fire rate?

ak 47 anytime. Russian version,avoid Bulgarian and Chinese(most common in any country),Iran/Iraq version is said to be existing too.
Israeli had modified AK very well in yon kipur war,by switching rear aim towards the end of the rifle making it 25% more accurate. We had russians AK's on the end of war operations in Croatia. Five years later I had an oportunity to travel to Tel Aviv and try modified Ak in one training camp for security education. It is more accurate. Well done Israelis...
OP
In a war situation I would have an H&K Mk. 23, as it is the weapon of the Navy SEALS and the only purposely designed offensive sidearm.
This is true, but what you know is funny is a Russian barrel, Chinese receiver, Czech clip and Bulgarian stock will all fit together and operate, not as well as the original, but will still do well. This is the only weapon in the world that will do this.
Barkuss/Cruello or me?

OP
Because of a hit percentage. There could be objects in the way or a chance the thing hits a tree or a sand bag in the area between the thrower and the target. Might want to think about basketball, you have a greater chance of hitting a target with a lob as in arching the basketball versus throwing it directly at someone or something like throwing the ball at the rim (Shaq). Also, it takes more time to arch it through the air, and since most grenades have a 3 second fuse, it's better than gunning the thing at someone where they might have 2 seconds to pick the thing up and gun it back at you.
Fair enough.
But basketball is different cause you care exactly where it lands, you don't need to drain a grenade.
Seems to me it would be useful if you could reset the fuse to whatever delay you wanted..
But still, why do you have to lob it when you can just throw it in the same arc the way you'd throw a baseball in an arc.
