Scott, with nothing else to do at the moment, I put my copy of the 3021(w/308 ProBall head) on the electronic whole pound bathroom scale. It read; 7 lbs. This means, I assume, it weighed anywhere from 6.5 lbs to 7.4 lbs. I know this scale is a rough and somewhat wonky, but the 3047 3-way, pan, tilt head must be fairly heavy.
