Hi Unregistered,

On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...

So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.

Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...

I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..

John D.

Difference in weight

If you had two#2 frames guns one with 32" barrels that weighed 7lb. 4oz. and another gun with 30" barrels that weighed 8lb. 4oz. where does the extra pound come from? First I thought the difference must be in the wood, but then the gun wouldn't ballance right. It's hard to believe that you could make up that much weight in a set of barrels. What do you guys think? I forgot to mention, the 32" gun was a live bird gun with a heavy set of barrels too. I think they were .036" min.
Thanks,
Chris
