I took a Parker DHE 16 gauge with 32" barrels on my last trip. It weighs 7lbs 4oz with double triggers. Shot about 3000 rounds through it and it performed flawlessly. Would have shot it more but the outfitter ran out of 16 gauge shells twice. The rest of the time I shot an SKB 485 28 gauge with 28" barrels. It weighed 7 lbs.

I would take the heaviest 20 gauge Parker Repro I could find. My friends that shot the light o/u 20 gauges that the outfitter had were pretty beat up. The outfitter's O/U 28 gauges seemed to work out very well for them.


Best,

Mike
