Quite correct, Paul. Thanks for the pics. I did so poorly with my SuperFox, I had a go with what fits best - my S'worth 20 ga ejector with 30" bbls. I wish I could blame the equipment.

Beware the man with one gun...he likely will bore you to death in others ways, too.

The middle gun in the rack of five is Super Fox #27,850, another participant in the Bo Whoop Shoot 2008.

She's been hunting but still has a touch of color. 32" short chamber gun with big bores and .050 in the left barrel. A West Coast gun from the time it was new until I found it. Shipped to Harper-Reynolds in LA in June of 1923.

That Super-Fox looks like a lightweight compared to a 6-frame Parker Bros. 12-gauge!!

Yup, the HE is a popgun compared to a #6 frame Parker. But we have found out that several hundred HE Grade Foxes were made but maybe only one #6 frame 12 gauge Parker, and try to pay for that Parker. My #6 frame ten gauge magnum Parker weighs 13 1/2 pounds. I would rather carry the 9 pound Fox any day. I wonder who owns the #6 frame 12 gauge Parker now? Is it you, Dave?

No. I just nicked the picture from Puglisi's site. The 2-Frame 20-gauge is heavy enough for me.
