Interesting differences among comparable guns. My 2 frame 12 ga DH has 30" D4 barrels with the unstruck weight of four pounds four ounces and a finished weight of three pounds eight ounces. The total weight of the gun is seven pounds eight ounces which seems to be on the lighter side of what is typical.

Other factors effecting the total weight of the gun when comparing two like guns could be pistol grip vs. straight grip stock and the dimensions of each? I assume the straight grip stock may be lighter? The presence of ejectors probably adds some weight vs extractors and maybe even DH butt plate vs. SSBP vs Silvers pad? These things may be splitting hairs, frame size and barrel length are probably the two biggest factors.
