It seems that at that time, an eight pound limit was initiated by some organizations, probably including the Interstate Association.

Bill, thats certainly a possibility. Mills asked what type shooting his Parker could have been used for, As his gun was ordered by factory salesman and shooting rep SA Tucker it appears Tuckers own Parker was of similar weight and maybe dimensions. The purchaser may have ordred the gun on Tuckers recommedations for a Live Bird and all around shotgun. That AAH Tucker owned certainly did not use much drop at heel during a time 3" was about norm.
