Theres a Parkers #3 frame on GB and the seller says the barrel weight is 12 as stamped on the barrels . Im wondering if its even possible to have 12lb barrels on a #3 frame they are 32" .
I also wonder with such heavy barrels on my 10 ga what the original intended charge was . None of the other muzzeloading 10 gauges I have seen come close to this weight even with long barrels .
