I find it an interesting curiosity. There are some considerations like a .22 Hornet on a SBH and a .17 on an Encore, they will he hefty. But they hold steady, just something to consider when planning. The race for ultra lightweight has a point of diminishing returns, you need a little weight to hold steady and manage recoil. The ultra super lights have awful and odd fast characteristic recoil sensation. I don't really like it.
I personally find a 2 lb. handgun about right for general carry. The 32 oz. 1911 is simply delicious, notably handier than the original 39 oz. version. My favorite .44 is right in the hunt due mostly to those large holes in cylinder and barrel. I find I can run that amount up considerably using a handy shoulder holster.

It does not mean anything, is what it is.

a lot of it has to do with why you are carrying the gun
