I've said it before, but the Brothers P did more weird and wonderful stuff with weight and balance than any other makers I know of. I know 2-frame 12-gauges that go over nine pounds and 3-frame 12-gauges that go 8 and a half pounds, both with 30-inch barrels. One year when Kevin and I were doing the PGCA booth at Sandanona, we had 32-inch barrel 20-gauges on the rack on 2-frame, 1-frame, and 0-frame. Likewise, most people think of the late 1/2 frame 12-gauges as light weight guns, but there exists at least one long barrel 1/2 frame 12-gauge that goes over 8 pounds! All great stuff and what keeps us coming back for more.
