Not really Dean, I posted 4lb for the PB receiver in error and it's 3lb. It's 6.25lb total I scarfed the first 30" 28 I came across. It's really a well balanced gun and I agree that Parker has the edge on aesthetics as far as the Sterly's are concerned but if you had seen and handled that 32" CE Fox 20 that was at the Southern you would have to rethink that. I'd put it up against any high grade Parker.

The word to describe the smallbore Fox is lithe. So is the 30" Parker 28. My comparison in my previous post of the two guns was to show, in my opinion, that you have to go down to a OO frame PB gun to get the feeling of the Fox smallbore. Obviously your mileage may vary but it sure works for me.
