Pedersoli Mortimer 12ga

[pevtsovy]

Does anyone have one of these? I am trying to find out what one weighs.

Internet is all over the place with 7 lbs to 10 lbs.

I would accept the weight given on the Pedersoli website as being 7.71 pounds.

The rifles are heavier but from what I remember of my 12g it was certainly 7lbs plus.

Pedersoli lists the rifle (in flint) at 10.13 pounds.

7.71 pounds is probably correct. But, there are mistakes in their catalogue. The 20 and 12 gauge SxS weights are reversed (or were for years). I own both and weighed them, carefully, and double checked.

I had one, would guess it was closer to 7 than 10 pounds.
