Hello

Was wondering if someone could weigh a Duramaxx for me? I've searched the forum and the web, can't seem to come up with it.

Also, do the duramaxx's have a solid forearm? VS the factory stock which is pretty much hollow?

Thanks, pretty sure this is the route I'm going, would need to convert it to left hand, and the duramaxx is looking like the best choice for my build. I have kevin at stockade working on a Benchmark 7saum barrel for me, not yet confirmed but I was told the muzzle diameter should finish up at around .80 so need to go with the heavy barrel channel.

Thanks

Two pounds eight ounces on the one I have. Hollow forearm but quite a bit more rigid than a factory tupperware. I have converted two to LH . Its pretty easy and if you fill the bolt slot on the right side with Devcon or similiar it looks pretty good.
