Nice gun! I'm wondering how a 2 frame gun can weigh 10 pounds?

Just seems really heavy. I have a 2 frame hammer gun with 28" bbls that's just over 8 pounds. Interesting gun for sure.

I'm going to weigh it on my shipping scales tomorrow. I have never heard of pouring lead in the stock. I'm guessing to lessen the recoil? I ordered the letter for it a couple of week ago.

I have an uncut set of 2-frame, 30", 10 gauge Damascus barrels that are stamped 5 lbs., 11 oz. and are very thick walled. I have fitted them to my 2-frame DH PG with a LOP of 14 1/4" and the balance point is about 3 1/2" in front of the hinge pin.

Or to improve the balance due to the gun being barrel heavy

I weighed it this morning on my shipping scales and it only reads 8.9Lbs. Barrels and forearm 4.4Lbs and the action and butt stock 4.5Lbs. It shoulders and points really nice.
