Depending on who's numbers you look at the 7.5" Ruger SuperBlackhawk goes 47 or 48 oz. A 6" S&W M29 is 45oz, according to Wiki.

For generations, gun writers have said the big issue with concealing a revolver was the bulk of the frame/Cylinder and the grips. Barrel length was a minor consideration for concealment.
