At 5.8 lbs it looks like my GH 20 is the lightest thus far

I have nothing that exactly fits the criteria. My 0-frame 20-gauge has 26-inch barrels and it letters at 6 pounds but is 6 pounds 2 ounces on my scales. I have two 28-inch Fox 20-gauges at 5 pounds 13 $ 14 ounces while the one I actually use is 6 pounds 4 ounces with a No Shoc recoil pad.

Thanks again for all the replies. Very interesting.
My Fox Sterlingworth Ejector 20 ga. with 28" barrels weighs 6# 3 oz. with one of Mark Beasland's "Silvers style" pads in place. The pad weighs 4.7 oz. The original buttplate weighs .7 oz. Do the math and the gun weighs 5# 15 oz with original buttplate. Add in the two buttplate screws and it'd hit 6 lbs. on the nose. I used the pad on it to get the LOP to what I needed. It is a magnificent quail gun. Dean Harris lengthened the chambers to 2 3/4" and opened the chokes to .006" and .016". I guess if the metal removed in the chambers and chokes were put back it would hit the 6 lb. 1 oz. average that you have, Craig. Just curious how much heavier Parkers are, comparing apples to apples. Would y'all say, based on Craig's 148 Fox average of 6-1, that the average weight difference would be about 4 to 5 oz.? |

I’ve got a Sterlingworth 20 28” and a VHE 20 28” both have factory buttplate . If I think about it this week I’ll take both to the shop and weigh them on the digital scales . On a side not I have a VHE 20 26” and “had” a Sterlingworth 20 26” . While that little Sterlingworth was hands down lighter I find that VHE 26” way easier to shoot than I did the 26” Sterlingworth .

I looked at a Parker 20 years ago and the barrels were marked for light loads or something like that and it did not seem all that light,were any factory marked that way or was it added on later? Bobby
