Dasmafia,

I'm not disagreeing with you on the actual weight of a double barreled vs. auto loader. Because generally speaking you are absolutely right, double barreled guns are generall heavier (though your adverage 12 guage SxS game gun is only about 6-1/2lbs not real heavy). I am talking about how the gun feels in your hands in terms of balance and "felt weight" (for lack of a better term). For some people a autoloader or pump given the extra length of the action and the general "bulky" nature of the repeating gun they can feel heavier. For me a 28" barrel auto-loader feels heavier than a nicely balanced double, even though the double might be heavier. But that's just me, as I always say, shoot what you like!
