4 to 6 frame 12 ga
i am interested in knowing how many 4 to 6 frames 12 ga s there is out there...i have read here on this forum about one 6 frame 12 ga...would be interested in total weight of the barrels and total weight of the guns...charlie

Jack Puglisi let me shoulder the 6 frame 12 at the Vegas show. It must be ten years ago now. Big gun but once you got it swinging it kept going. I think a 3 1/2 magnum would feel like a 22 long rifle. He sold it not long after. I wonder who has it now.

well we know there is at least one big frame 12 ga...i m with you there would not be much reciol even with heavy loads...this would have been a interesting gun to have got a letter on....charlie

I wonder if it was chambered for 3 inch shells? 3 1/2? The unstruck barrels weigh more than most of my finished guns.

Looks like that 6 frame 12 was made specifically to test proof loads :shock:

Looks to me to be designed to run on leftover dynamite should you run out of ammo.....
|
Does anyone know how long the barrels are? With the chamber wall thickness as heavy as it looks, I am somewhat suprised that they are only marked 7/13. My 6 frame 8 gauge with 36" barrels are marked 9/1.

if this gun was not chambered for 3 or 3 1/2 inch shell it should have been...thanks for the pictures of this gun...i would say i would have thought the barrels to have weighed moreanyway its a knock out for sure i hope someone is useing this on waterfowl some wereany more big frame 12 ga out there....charlie

Charlie, I think I own your dream gun. I have a #6 frame hammerless that was originally an 8 gauge and was rebarreled at Parker Brothers with ten gauge Vulcan Steel barrels chambered 3 1/2", probably before Parker advertised 3 1/2" guns. It may be the first modern, fluid steel 10 gauge chambered for the 3 1/2" magnum shells. Unfortunately, it is a 13 pounder or better and not pleasant to carry.
