Are there ANY examples of 1/2 frame guns that actually have the "lightening slots cut into flats same as 00 frame"....?


I am left wondering why the 1/2 frame was ever even designed to accept "light 12 or 16 gauge" barrels when in fact Parker Brothers had already produced both 12's and 16's on the number 1 frame. It all seems to me to have been an exercise in futility.......
