Bill,You would need a loader just to help hold the front end up !!!!!!!!!!!:rotf:

I think I have an EH 12 ga.

Craig I am not sure where this is going but I doubt there is much difference in an ,NH , EH ,DH etc. but for what it's worth ,I would assume there are average weights per frame and barrel length but should the customer have ordered something specifically ,I feel certain the Brother's P would have done their best to accommodate ! For what it's worth , I have a DH 10 Ga. 32" Damascus Barreled gun on a #3 Frame that weighs 9Lb. 6 Oz. and was sent back to Parker for a set of Barrels in 12 Ga.Damascus along with their own Forend ,with these 12 Ga. Barrels on including their own Forend the gun still weighs 9 Lb. 6 Oz. The gun feels different in hand as the weight of the 32" Barrels are distributed along the entire length of the gun but the weight of the 12 Ga. Barrels is more centralized between the hands ! Hope this helps ! Russ

I suspect I'll be satisfied with the EH #2 30" M/IM gun I bought last night and maybe relatively soon I can find a nice EH #3 32" F/F to go with it . Wouldn't mind another on a #6 frame but I am not holding my breath .

I have a grade 3 4 frame 10 ga with 32 in barrels. Not sure of the weight but will weigh it today and post. Carvel

You need to bring that bad boy up my way this spring and maybe Patton and Doc Lehue can join us at the Flying Rabbit in Mt Crawford .

Greg and Brian, I did not see any ejector equipped grade 1 or 2 10 ga. guns listed in the serialization book between serial #108000 and 140000. There were 10ga. ejector equipped guns listed in Grade 3 and above in this same group. Of course there are many SNs missing from this book and what information is available in the order books may be another matter. HTH.

Does anyone have or has anyone seen a Grade 1 or Grade 2 composite barrel hammerless 10 ga with factory ejectors? I went through the same exercise as Fred last year (it was a long cold winter then too) and I never came across any in the Serialization book.
