Those things are kinda heavy for what they are, with the 26” barrel Not sure. I was mostly after shortening it (that long barrel kinda defeats the purpose of carrying a novel compact gun to me) and making it a little more balanced. Both were affected greatly IMHO.

Is it a challenge thing or cause the gun is easier to tote etc? Yes. Lol! Me personally, I never tote one until I’m pretty well satisfied for the year. IE it dont hurt too bad when I miss one (which has happened with a .410 way more than I care to admit though I have never had one with a reflex sight until now). I do also carry it as backup when I take a newbie and let them tote my main gun. I do know a bunch of folks start carrying em on day 1 of the season though. I doubt I’m ever that guy to be honest. I have pretty much sold out to the 20 gauge for the rest of my life, unless TSS becomes illegal. At the end of a super long season, absolutely exhausted in May and getting set to walk up up a mountain for the millionth time, being as light as possible is really nice.
