Default 20 ga. gun weights
What would be the lightest 28" barreled Parker 20 ga. that has been "recorded", and about where would the average weight be?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys. I hope a few more members who own 28" Parker 20s will respond. I read somewhere that because of design features Parker small bores are heavier than Foxes and L C Smiths. I'm just trying to get some anecdotal evidence as to how much so they are.

"Connie" - My 1903 28" titanic steel barreled 20 bore DHE weighs in at 6Lbs. 7oz - I suspect my others would be heavier as they have longer barrels
