The Pardner I ordered is a 20 gauge so it will probably balance similar to yours, who knows I may love it and fore go the walnut stocks.
I sure hope they have my gun in stock in Kansas City so my local gun shop can have it to me Tuesday. This will be the second Pardner i'm adding to my collection. The other is a 10 gauge I bought for geese, ducks, and turkeys when I was in high school. What a beast!
