I've had a bunch of both. I mostly have Foxes for the most part now. I think Parkers are generally heavier for respective gauges. I think for Grouse hunting and climbing the mountains of Va/WV and Pa weight matters. I've had two different Foxes in 16 gauge that came in under 6 lbs. One was 5 lbs 10 ounces. I think Parker barrels were struck better.
