Petzl has SOME holes in their Sm'D and Spirt carabiners so can you drill holes in yours to save weight? Elliott Bernhagen https://www.instagram.com/anikulapu/ sent me a few carabiners with a LOT of holes in them to see if they were super good enough.

Just buy light carabiners if you want light carabiners.
