Barrel breech wall thickness is mostly determined by the standardized frame size. And the gun’s weight and consequent frame size is determined by how the gun was ordered/specified.

Parker Bros. built 12-gauge guns pretty regularly on 1, 1 1/2, 2 and 3 frames, a few late Remington built guns on the 1/2 frame and even at least one on a 6-frame that Jack P. had for sale years ago --
