My "new" 16ga. Lifter
 
9 Attachment(s)
This is a recent acquisition, a 0 grade 16 gauge lifter with 28” plain twist barrels on a #0 frame and plain stock without checkering. The LOP is a little short at 13”, but with a heavy coat or slip on pad I will make it work.

I will need to replace the right hammer and might just buy a set and keep the one original hammer with the gun. There are several small dents in the barrels that need to be raised and I will have the barrels refinished. I am optimistic that it will clean up well.

I want to order the research letter on this too. I had been looking for a 16 gauge hammer gun and was very excited to find one that was a lifter.

Excellent! I bid on that one too but glad you got it.

Thanks Mills! I think I may of mentioned I was spending next year's gun budget when I at that auction. Looking forward to getting this 16 lifter back in service.

Budget?

Nice looking gun! I bet it will clean up nicely, 16 gauge lifters are special, Gary
