Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

that is the sort of thing I am wondering-
if the barrel weight is stamped before striking - then a swamped barrel could be uncharacteristically light for the weights marked

Cool factor and rarity does it for me. I can shoot dynamite in my two frame guns, so I don't need any more beef. However the three frames are so cool. My 16 gauge three frame is beyond cool. It weighs 8 pounds, 13 ounces. I have a DH 12 gauge two barrel set, three frame, that weighs 8-8 and 8-12, depending on the barrels installed. My three frame DH with sleeved Lefever Steel barrels appears as a 12 gauge in the order book, ordered at 10 pounds even. The two frame twenty gauge guns I am aware of, with swamped barrels, are ordered at 8 pounds even.
