I don't even consider 7.4 lbs. heavy. I've got big duck gun S X Ss weighing up to 9.5 lbs. ๐Ÿ˜


May God bless America and those who defend her.

I haven't gotten my hands on a pigeon or a gun like that yet. Coming from Trap, where 9lbs is the average, it's strange to see so many at 5/6lbs. I am not a hunter, so I don't have that experience, but I do get that carrying a lunker all day in the field would not be fun.

It depends what it's used for.

A heavy gun in a duck blind, or on a clays course, is no big deal.

...it's a whole 'nother deal as a grouse gun, or even for prairie birds.

No one was referring to usage, GR. Read the poster's words that I quoted. He said he's never seen a S X S as heavy as 7.4 lbs.

Try to stay on topic. That was a pitiful attempt to start up another confrontation.

Sleep tight, now.
