Nope, that would be an incorrect assumption. The barrel steels are not significantly different in weight, cubic inch of one vs. cubic inch of the other.
Further, striking of the different steel barrels didn't vary significantly except with the possibility of a finer finish on the 'Titanic' barrels.
If you want a lighter sixteen gauge Parker for upland shooting why not look for one built on the 0-frame size... you could save another half pound.
