20 ga. gun weights

[Stan Hillis]

Parker manufactured 20s in five different frame sizes, according to info on our home page ....... 1/2 through 2. Does a chart exist that would show comparative overall gun weights in each of these frame sizes with 28" barrels, again in 20 gauge?

In lieu of that, could some members kindly post gun weights for their personal guns, in 20 ga. and with 28" barrels?

I would not really say that they “manufactured them in those frame sizes. The typical frame sizes for 20g would be 0 or 1 in the case of heavy or long barreled guns. Anything other than that would be extremely rare and by special request or a gun with multi-gauge barrel sets. Ie: a 12/20 on a 2 frame.

Brian is correct. I have 21 twenty gauge Parkers on my spreadsheet with data I have collected. In addition to those 21 I have ordered letters on a handful of other 20 gauge Parkers and have looked at many of that gauge. I personally have seen two Parker 20s on 1 frames, the balance were all 0 frames. There is nothing scientific about my information, but anything other than a 0 frame Parker 20 is a outlier for sure.

Stan I have a 28" Parker 20 at home on 0 frame that I will get you the weight later today.

I seem to remmember someone on here claiming to have or have seen a 20 gauge on a 3 frame that was supposedly factory original .

Both of my #2 frame 32" twenties weigh about 8 1/4 to 8 1/2 pounds. They are not 2 barrel sets.
