25 isn't too bad. But I can recall the 545, which had 2 handles and needed
a porter on each one. Far side of 80 pounds. I checked one out of the tool
crib at EAFB in about Oct. '61 because I needed to check a camera from the
portal door of one of the Titan sites wrapped around EAFB. They didn't have
a 4 wheel warehouse cart and the parking lot at the MAMS building on that
entrance was only rocked anyway, got halfway to the car with it, headed for
the back wire maintenance corner of the base and one of the internal to the
handle steel straps broke from rust. Made quite an impression on my both
my foot and the scope. I took it back and checked out another, bitching
about somebody's kids leaving it out in the rain. Fortunately I didn't
have to pay for the damages. I saw a 585 once, much much heavier.
