Spire is actually lighter than the z2, and has a bit of a smaller profile.

No, its not.
Prophecy z2 - 14.8oz
Virtue Spire - 16.5oz
1lb = 16oz
I dont have a spire sitting in my room to compare, but i'm pretty sure the prophecy is a tad smaller. Spire is about the same size as the Rotor, maybe slightly less tall

Thank you, i really didnt want to have to search for further proof to prove that the Z2 was lighter than the Spire.

As pumpscout posted... those are the true weights.

I really think the weight between the z2 and Spire isnt really a factor. Hardly think on top of a gun, and full of laint anyone will notice the weight difference. I didn't look at the video, but I would imagine with batteries the Spire would weigh less since it takes less batteries
I've played/owned a z2 for a while and it always worked flawlessly.
Recently tested a Spire, and it has a fairly significant lower profile. I just sold my z2 to pickup a Spire

I agree. The weight difference is minimal. Just buy according to features, looks and price. And in my opinion, if you are going to compare weights, weigh them stock WITH batteries.
