Just another note about barrel length... semi-autos and pumps have extra length at the receiver to house the loading mechanisms. Break action guns--which the user loads directly--does not need this space.
So generally speaking, a semi-auto or pump will be about 4" longer than a SxS, O/U, or single shot with the same barrel and stock length. For example, I have a pump with a 24" barrel that has the same overall length as my break action gun with 28" barrels.
