that 15 lb parker has to be the heaviest parkers I ve heard of...I know of 2 parkers with barrels that weigh over 10 lbs this gun is one of them....I love these big old heavy guns...charlie

My three frame 12 weighs in at 10 lbs. and that’s just about more than I can handle.

I remember at least one member here has a 3 frame 16 gauge If I recall weighs in around 9lbs .

Yup, my #3 frame 16 is one of those XXL bird guns, nine pounds, 28" rather open choked barrels from the factory that way. Why? I have not a clue. However, it show signs of many happy days afield.

So now I'm wondering if anyone has a 2 frame 20 gauge which I think would be considered heavy for one .

#2 frame twenties are scarce, but they are out there. My old 32" VH #2 frame 20, #153,333 is a search I have been on for years. I want to buy it back after foolishly selling it decades ago.

I just love the idea of a gun being built on a larger than needed action for some reason . I have always thought a 28 gauge would be fun to own . I held a cz bobwhite at a shop about 2 years ago . I liked it but it felt way too petite in the hands for me . Plus I prefer the more of a push recoil you get from a heavier gun vs the sharper jab recoil of light weights .
