Like I said.... "nearly impossible". You found a very rare bird Rich... but you know that.

So Rich, you found the needle in the haystack, eh?
Glad they are out there. Perhaps I'll be as fortunate as you in finding one.

Cheers,

I found a bunch of 16s on GI that I would buy if I needed one.

Brett,

Welcome! Keep looking for the 0 frame 16 with the beavertail and straight stock. That will leave the same gun with a straight hand stock and splinter fore end for the rest of us who love that configuration.

P.S. I'd advise buying a Parker to use while you hunt for your holy grail. You may find it's just what the doctor ordered.

Brett,
As said before keep looking but don’t turn down a chance at any nice 16. The absolute worst one I have is wonderful...
