Now, regarding Mr. Mobirdhunters's collection I would like make one observation. If I'm reading this thread correctly, yesterday he stated "John, stay away from 16s.". This morning he provided us a list of his 16b collection, which included 20, that's right, 20 shotguns. And he stated "I like 'em".
Hmmmmm! Kinda makes you think........  As he hinted, he's a hoarder. |
Uh-Oh, I think I'm caught! Well, Jeff, you got me, but remember that I have altruistic intentions in buying 16s. (And, for Harold, I forgot I do also have an early Flues 16, a wonderfully light bird gun choked open-tight).
Here's one of my favorite 16s -- a Parker CHE with Bernard barrels. Don't buy those Bernard barrel guns, either. They just can't take being shot 100 years later. So, call me if you see one and I'll try to get it off the market.
