I love my #6 frame Parker 8ga guns and can understand the weight using 2oz or 2 1/4oz loads back in the day. But why a 6 frame in any other gauge? Why would anyone want a 13 pound plus 12ga or 10ga?? I once owned a 10ga D 36" #6 frame, that is still owned by a member, it was a beast.

I’ve had a five frame hammer 10 in my hands (owned by a friend) and three four frame hammer guns in my hands one of which I got from you and I thought the four of them rather cumbersome . But I also think the stock dimensions had a bit to do with that . There was a time I wanted 10’s or 8’s in frames sizes 2-7 got them all except a 5 frame .
