Got the big #6 frame 10 gauge NH grade home today. The barrel weight marking is 8-1. The barrels must have been seriously struck, because the gun only weighs twelve pounds, zero ounces. It is a great old six frame with 3 1/2" chambers from the factory. I bought three ten gauge Parkers at the auction where I bought this one. A couple of days ago, my friend, Nicole, called me and said she had found some ammunition during her basement cleanup. There were the ubiquitous water soaked paper shells from the forties through the sixties. However, included in the find were three boxes of fresh Remington Express 2 7/8" plastic 1 5/8 ounce ten gauges in #4 shot size. One box for each of my new ten gauge Parkers. Lucky me.
