Diminutive 16-bore

Dave ,I think your theory is probably correct as you are referring ,but I have weighed just about every Parker barrel I have owned and came up with what Edgar is saying ,with Forend on and laying on an old egg scale almost everyone was the Unstruck Barrel Weight stamped on the barrels or within an 1/2 oz. . Coincidence ,maybe but pretty unbelievable ? We had a Thread on this quite a while ago ,I don't think we ever did reach a solid conclusion ! Makes for good conversation ! Russ

Russ, I have found the exact same thing You and Edgar have found. I was a firm believer in what you guys are saying but after doing further research and with the publishing of theTPS along with many long conversations with the Authors and Dr. Hogan I have come to believe different.
