Default Trap Gun Weight

Ken Waite sent me a table of GAH trap gun makes and weights, which we included in one of the Iron Men articles. There was a 5 1/2 pound gun listed, but I think it was a typo or mis print.
There is a piece of advertising in the most recent PP indicating Parker could deliver lighter guns in higher grades. I remember reading this same material when I first began collecting Parkers. This promise has not materialized in the presence of a set of scales.

Best, Austin
