Only Parker 28 I ever owned was on an 0 frame but 26” . Never weighed it so I can’t speculate at your question .

My O frame 28 gauge with 28” barrels is 6.2 lbs with unstruck barrel weight of 2/14
My O frame 28 gauge with 26” barrels is 6.4 lbs with unstruck barrel weight of 3/2

I've got to agree with Mr. Larter on the weight of a Fox 20 to a Parker O frame 20. The Fox is just slimmer and lighter. I've got 8 Parker 20's, all O frames and I certainly love shooting them. The frame of my OO 28ga is actually the same size as one of my Fox 20's or 16's.

Light doesn’t work for me from a shooting standpoint. I loved carrying my OO frame 28’s in the woods but I damn sure couldn’t kill anything with them. The little more weight of the O frame is significantly more effective for me.
