Guess I should have been more clear. They said it was impossible to build one under 7 lbs.

I don't remember what the quote was, but they next day they called me and said it would be 1000 more than yesterday. It was a great place to look around but all 3 times I tried to deal with them was like banging my head against the wall. And stupid me ,is considering trying to order a 20 rbl now

Kurt,
There are a lot of slightly used RBLs of all gauges out there for sale at various times. If you are aware of the specs you need, be patient, the right one at the right price will turn up. I bought a beautiy of a 16 GA from a member of this board a while back and I just love the gun and its perfect for me.

Kurt, this seem weird but in there defense no particular weight was discussed when I had my gun built. I only requested it as light as possible so they told me they would build it on a 16 gauge frame. But it is 6.8 Lbs as shipped by them.

I asked if they could just get it around your 6 and a half pounds. I didn't want to order one and then have it be around 7 lbs. because that's more than I want to carry. With all the blanks they have there you would think they could find a light enough one to make it work
