Nice piece! The weight?

Thanks. I will check the weight when I get back to the house this afternoon.

Ok. Weight is 9 1/2 pounds. Also off hand it holds well. To me it has that ( hang ). But not to the point of feeling muzzle heavy. And this is really a clean gun especially given it’s over 45 years built.
