If you look at any modern reproduction, they tend to weigh about the same as these two examples.

Heck, if you look at a modern soldier's overall combat kit, you find that this 40-60 lb limit of what a soldier can wear/carry and still be effective is probably an empirical number that has derived numerous times independently as far back as history goes.
