who makes the lightest pump shotguns available in 20 ga or 12. the lightest i've found it the ithaca 20ga featherweight 20 youth at less then five pounds unloaded, what other options are there?
 
Not much,bullfrog, the Ithaca pretty much takes it.

The Mossie 500 in 20 gauge with a short bbl is kinda light too.

Just remember, there's always a tradeoff. Less weight, more felt recoil....
 
very true, the gun would be pretty much a carry much use little thing, something i could carry when i scout a new deer hangout or to have with me just in case a rabbit jumps out near me etc.

if we add short SXS shotguns are there any of those in the ultralight catagory?
 
The Benelli Nova is also a light gun. It is lighter than the remington, browning, and I think winchester and mossburg.
 
I always thought the Franchi guns were extremely light, but I don't have any stats to compare them with those listed above. Anyone?
 
I'm certain you can get a Franchi autoloader in 20 ga with the shorter barrell that weighs about 5 1/4 lbs., my dad had one. It is recoil operated so it kicks a little harder but it is light and not too expensive for an auto (I know you originally asked about pumps). I think that's one he wishes he would have kept.
