Default barrel weight

If two Parkers have the same length of pull and the same frame size,but one has 28 inch barrels and the other 30 what should the weight difference be? Is there a weight between steel barrels and damascus of the same length?

It would all depend on the barrel's weight

There are heavy and light barrels of any length even within a frame size

If you are talking the overall weight of the gun, there's other variables in play also. Like type & density of the wood, LOP, type of grip, etc.

Actually the 28" barrels could weigh more than the 30" barrels, barrel weights are all over the place, gary
