16 TA Grade 3 out for some cold clays....

Love seeing those purple shells , reminds me of my friends grandpa growing up . My friend never wanted to hangout with his grandpa but to me he was the coolest old man . I used to go with him when he would squirrel hunt with his Sweet Sixteen and watch him drop them all day with those purple shells .

Someday I am going to find a 16 ga double I really want .

Ya know, Just the other day I was thinking 'Someday I am going to find a 16 ga double I don't want'.

haha well I look at one then ill see another one I like and then I will run across a 10ga I like . I would like a PH 16ga to go with my NH 10 ga and its been listed for a long time but I never seen the seller going down on his prices . Now a dream 16 ga to me would be on a #3 frame , I have heard of them before never seen one however .

I heard that I have I think seven Parker 16’s and a couple more by other makers . For a 16 I suppose a Parker top lever Grade 2 on an 0 frame with 26 or 28 inch barrels would be at the top of the list for a want !

Same here Milton but they aren't always purple. I can tolerate a variety of colors in a nice 16, I bet most of us can.

Those thirty or so year old red Winchester AA style 16’s do it for me ! But I kinda like the old AA red 12’s 28’s and 410’s as well ! Heck I’ve even got 4 or 5 old red Winchester AA 20’s .

I think its the Federal hulls that are purple and they are usually more costly than others . The only 16 gauge I owned was a 57' Ithaca 37 and I shot mostly Rios out of it . Even walmart here stocks 16 and 28 gauge shells because we have alot of quail hunters .
