If it balances correctly and isn't muzzel or butt heavy then to me the weight isn't a big deal....up to a point.

I guess I'll still be a contrarian. A heavy gun is a heavy gun to be carrying all day in the uplands. A heavy gun is for waterfowl or clays. I do agree the "feel" of a gun is affected by more than just weight. The repro for sale seems heavy for a double trigger gun with straight grip and a splinter. I don't think you'll see many DT, SG A1 special repros for sale, but I just can't see why it is 7lbs 10oz.
