[QUOTE="dirtboy, post: 416373, member: 25918"] @ 542 The gun has a 26'' shilen barrel. The brakes are titanuim. Buy them putting a wrapped bull barrel on it. I did not wiegh the gun when it was factory. Going by the book the gun weighs about 9.5lbs. When I got it back I weighed it buy my bathroom scale ,not that thats real professional,but its what I have. I just weighed it to double check.
