Complete Or In Parts

Several places describing protective masks are including the complete kit in the weight and not breaking it apart into component parts weight.

For example:

The M25 mask includes the mask, hood, carrier, decontamination kit and atropine set.

TM 3-4240-280-10 says 6.25 lb with carrier, but no mention of the decon or atropine.  Since the filter is attached to the carrier in the M25 mask, it makes sense to have it be 6.25 lb.

I mean, that's what I was issued, but that's not my natural way of showing it on a character sheet.
