Bruce,

That was an excellent point! Parker offered its guns in different frame sizes/weights for what I think would often be for heavier or light loads. I have a #5 frame 10 gauge lifter weighting over 12 pounds which would have certainly tamed a heavy black powder load more that a similar gun built on a #3 frame weighing "only" 9 pounds!
