Bill, the scale is accurate - unfortunately the gun is that heavy. On the plus side, it balances 1/4" from the center of the hinge pin.
I've convinced myself that for a one-two day hunt it would be OK! For a five day hunt, not so much.
Dean, I've got a 1 1/2 frame 30" Parker, but it is a trap configuration and just isn't the ticket for "real" birds. it does however work very well for me on Sporting Clays.
Current plans have me taking a 20ga. RBL with 28" barrels and straight grip on this trip.
Thanks for the input from everyone. It helped convince me of what direction to move in.
