I wonder what this one weighs. It's not a Parker that I can tell but I wonder what gauge it is..... and why is such a little guy shooting it?

I’ll ask a really stupid question : why such heavy guns? I get the long barrel part but what loads would be shot in a 6 frame is that could not be shot in a 3 frame? I’ve hefted a 4 frame and it was hard to get moving.
