My 30" DH eight weights exactly ten pounds and handles like a bird gun. However, it is probably the lightest hammerless eight that Parker Brothers ever made. A friend owned a #5 frame eight lifter that probably weighed less than ten pounds. In contrast, my #6 frame ten with 34" Vulcan barrels weighs more than 13 pounds. It really depends on the individual gun how they are going to handle.
