I have seen very few #3 frames hit 10lbs , theres a GH at Morphys with 6lb barrels that weighs 10lbs whole . 32" is probably my favorite barrel length but Ive had one 10 gauge a old Stoeger Zephyr that had a 36" barrel . You have to be careful with barrels that long not to dent the muzzles haha .

A #6 frame with a 8 ga and 10 ga barrel set would be the perfect double to me .

I have had the urge for a 8ga but decided to not pursue one since it is illegal to hunt ducks with a 8ga. So I have decided to focus on 10's in grade 3 top lever hammer frame sizes 4,5 and 6..

In hammerless 10ga I have an almost full house, AH 10/32, CH 10/34 damascus, CH 10/30 Bernard, DH 10/30. Still need a BH 10 ga to complete the 10 ga hammerless collection which is a hard one to find.

I guess using one for other game in your state is illegal ?
Im in Georgia and we can turkey hunt with the 8 ga and other big game .

Seems most of the Parker 10 gauges I see for sale are PH and GH grades .
Do you take that #6 frame out waterfowling ?
