Default 7 frame Parker

Has anyone seen a 7 frame Parker? I have seen 6 frame 8ga. Parkers, but never a 7. Were any made?

Thanks, Daryl

I just recently found mention in a book about waterfowling in the west that Parker made one 4 gauge. I'd say a 7 frame would have been perfect for that. I doubt the quote obviously, but it was interesting to even read that rumor.

Glad to see you have escaped from Southern captivity Daryl. I'll try to dig out the notes I recieved from Bill Furnish; I think he once examined a 7 frame.

Best, Austin

My 8 ga. that was on display at the Pheasant Fest last year is a 7 frame. It has 38" barrels and weighs 15.25 lb.
