Yeah I was going the thinner and lighter aspect. The BWM is almost (I THINK) as heavy the DF, but NO WAY am I getting rid of it, OR the Regulator that came with it.
Even though the BWM may be just about as heavy as the DF, it feels at least to me to be quicker handling and does not seem as heavy. I can't really explain it unless it's the handle shifting the center of balance.
Believe it or not, the BWM is heavier than the DF CG by about 2.5 oz, probably 3.5 in your case with the G-10. I know what you mean though, the BWM does feel lighter because of the fact that the DF CG is so forward heavy.
The Basic 10 LE would be perfect for you! Tbh it's My least favorite of the 4. I still love it though!! Maybe someday you'll get your Basic 10 LE <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />.
