I saw this same bag on a different site, and the specs are totally different.
Max user height given here: 6' for reg.
Max user height given there: 5'6" for reg.
Weight given here: 1300g for reg. (=approx 2lbs 13oz)
Weight given there: 3lbs 13oz
I don't see model year listed here, but model year there is 2010. I'm assuming this one is 2010 as well. The other site shows "total" weight (which I assume includes the compression sack), but could the compression sack really weight an entire pound?
I definitely trust you BC folks... but 2lbs 13oz just seems too light to be true for this bag. What's the real weight of this bag?

I purchased this exact item in long. The physical tag attached to the bag listed it as 3 lbs, 11 oz. This is above the weight listed on the site here at 1400g (or 3 lbs, 1 oz). They're aware and likely working to fix it. Just a heads up for you guys.

most other sites i've checked have said 3 lbs 13 oz. i think 1300 grams is for the down version of this bag.

Good point, I did check the specs of a women's specific bag. I compared specs of the men's bag on the same site, but I'm still seeing the one pound weight discrepancy.
