Re: 20" Gold Tip Laser II Weights?
I had a half dozen bare shafts laying aroung and here is the weights that I got with my scales.
Bare shaft-aluminum rear and brass insert - 280.9 grams
Bare shaft-aluminum front and rear insert - 214.8 grams
Plus or minus a couple of grams either way.

Re: eleminate another source of noise
I wraped mine a week or so ago with the limbsaver wrap desigened to wrap around the handle of a verticle bow to take the hand shock out. I like it!
