Just weighed mine, its 7.5kgs with my moonlite focuser on it.

Just to add to everyone elses comments, I've now owned two of them, I sold the first one to try my hand at wide field nonsense, but have since found my way back to an 8" RC... There are advantages and disadvantages to the RC just like any other telescope, but overall I find the GSO RC to be a very capable little scope. The focuser that comes with it really is laughable however... I strongly recommend a moonlite or feather touch..
