Parker Frame weight

[Fritz Dornan]

Hello Gents,
I have a few questions about frame weight on Parkers 12 ga. Shotguns and the relative number of guns made on each size. How much do the 1, 1 ½ and, 2, number 12 ga. frames weigh? Was there a 2 ½ frame made for 12 ga?. The #2 was the most common and I have seen a few #1 and 1 1/2 12 ga. frames but have never seen a # 3, but I think they were made. Has there been records kept that would tell how many 12 gauge Parkers were many on each frame size? To me there is a big difference in the “Feel” of a #1 12 ga. And a #2 12 ga but I have never been in a position to weigh them to come up with the actual weight. (as of now I do not own any Parkers but I plan to remedy that hear very soon)

Thanks for any information you can come up with,
Fritz Dornan
