One gun I am building (a VH to CH upgrade) on a 2 frame, I milled out the underside of the forend. And that saved 1/2oz. I do plan on milling out he water table on my 20g hammer gun I am building. So I will post the results of what the weights are before and after once I do it. I would wager an ounce as well.

At one time, I calculated the weight savings on an 0 frame lifter to be about 1.5 ounces. The lifter has one continuous cut, unlike the top lever that has 2 cuts per side, interrupted by the check-hook rod.
