I guess it is, for 26" barrels. But, in general I don't consider 7 lbs. a very heavy gun.

Couple weeks ago Gil and I hunted woodcock. I was using my 30" barreled Verona 28 gauge, and we killed two limits that day. He asked me, during the day, how much the Verona weighed. I replied "6 lbs. something, I think". I couldn't remember, and it didn't seem heavy to me at all. That evening, at home, I looked and it weighs 7 lbs. 3.6 oz., unloaded. Gun weight is relative, I guess.

God help me but I need to get out of NoVa. First Choice - Gainesville Fl; Second Choice - Baldwin Country east of Mobile, AL; third choice - someplace in the tidewater area of jawja around Savanna.

Argo, I don't think there are many people who don't want to relocate from Northern Virginia. It kinda fits JFK's description of DC: "A city with northern charm and southern efficiency." 3 years there was more than enough for me! But I was able to enjoy some pretty decent fishing for smallmouth on the Rappahannock above Fredericksburg.

How is 7 lbs. and less than one ounce closer to 8 lbs. than 7? It's three- quarters of an ounce, not three-quarters of a pound.

Ah... I stand corrected. I read it as 3/4 lb.
