My two hammer guns are lighter than the hammerless guns. I have a GHE with straight stock, SST, BTF that weighs well over 6lbs and a GH, PG, splinter that is under 6lbs. both guns have 28 inch barrells. I think the two biggest factors in weight are the wood and barrels.
it would be interesting to see a selection of barrels of the same length and see what the weights were befor striking.
