Among the 8 Sportsmen Show Stopper floorplans KZ’s Sportsmen Show Stopper brochure (filed in KZ’s 2016 brochure folder; the flyer prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 6 from the lightest, in a range from 4,480 lb (Sportsmen Show Stopper S242SBHSS) to 6,210 lb (Sportsmen Show Stopper S314BHKSS). Every figure in that comparison is KZ’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from KZ’s Sportsmen Show Stopper brochure (filed in KZ’s 2016 brochure folder; the flyer prints no year); model year 2016 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.

05 How it compares
5,530 lb dry and 7,000 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,010 lb and 8,000 lb.
6,080 lb dry and 8,800 lb GVWR, against this model’s 6,010 lb and 8,000 lb.
