Weighing Weapons
From BelegarthWiki
The weighing of weapons will go into effect in April of 2006 because of new minimum weight requirements required by the BoW.
Methods
Postal Scales
These scales work best on class 1 weapons and some class 2 weapons. These types of scales are nice because they can be very accurate in the sense that some have 10ths of ounces on them. Some also can reach up to 3 pounds or more, kind of like the scales in the produce aisle of the grocery store. However, because the weapon must be laied on the scale the weapon may not be weighed evenly resulting in a slightly higher or lower wieght than actual.
Fish Scale
This method can be used on all weapons that have weight requirements a person might chose a type of fish scale. There are spring loaded which give a rough estimate in ounces and pounds, and there are also elctronic fish scales which may be more accurate in finding out if a weapon is in fact the right amount. The beauty of these scales is that the weapon must hang from the scale so gravity is the only force acting upon it.
