I had one too; mine seems to have disappeared as well! I have a feeling it's around here somewhere but in several years of casual searching it hasn't turned up.

A shame about yours being stolen at your club; you just don't expect such things to happen when everyone there is supposedly somewhat like-minded. However, we did get an email reminder at my club to keep our cars locked; apparently some items were taken.

Dean, my understanding is that he didn't write that, it was copied off of Facebook. I said it was wordy as most things there are, but the spirit of his post is excellent. And I agree, an article on the 16 would be awesome.

As far as 16g Society, I've been a member a long while, but I also think that as more information comes out on other forums and the internet their relevance was maybe destined to fade? I wish it didn't. And that is a one of the coolest logos I've seen.

Bill, the restocking of my Parker 16 ga VH was done by DelGrego. Larry told me to come back in a year and the gun would be ready. And a year later it was.

So multiple guys are asking for a 16g article for Parker Pages.

SOMEONE NEEDS TO WRITE A 16G ARTICLE FOR PARKER PAGES!!

The deadline for the next issue is April 15. Just sayin'.

I went to Bass Pro in Foxboro today and bought out all of their 16 ga ammo. I wasn't sure if they'd let me do that but much to my pleasant surprise they did without comment.

I just wanna know who's writing the article now...

Allen, how much per box was the 16 gauge ammo you purchased? We will check at our local Bass Pro, which isn't too local.

$8.99 per box. I think that price include my veterans discount

Good luck Mike, it would be nice to see some new contributors/authors in PP.

EDIT! This post was supposed to go in Bret Trimbles thread of "Show your favorite 16ga" Could someone put it in the that thread for me? Sorry!

There's no way I could pick a favorite. They're like children to me. I love them all equally. I'll post a few.

First my Parkers.
GHE Skeet, 1939 gun with 28" barrels. This one sat in Remington's inventory until 1942+. I bought it at a local gun show 25 years ago at a bargain price.

Next set is a group of 3 other Parker 16's.
Top, is a PH that was originally a 12ga that was returned to have 16ga Titanic barrels and D grade wood installed. (bought this from a member)
Below that is a PH with 28" stub twist, Mod and Full chokes. (Got from Ben Loving)
Third gun is a Trojan 16 with 28" Mod and Full chokes. Purchased at a large auction for $450 plus shipping and buyer premium. All in, $600.

Fourth set is a Belgium made Nimrod hammer gun with 27" barrels choked Imp and Full. This gun is tiny, the water table hardly wider than my thumb.
It weighs in at 5lbs, 4 ounces.

Next in line is a French made gun with several reinforcement ribs on the stub twist barrels. It sports interesting silver geometric inlays on the receiver and and an under lever for opening, and a smaller lever under that to remove the barrels.

Then a Winchester Mod 12 16a pump with grade #5 engraving.

Last set of pics are a Francotte Model BB 16ga from 1899 26" barrels. This gun was also purchased from a member here. It is in like new condition. this gun was consigned to Abercrombie & Fitch by Von Lengerke & Detmold in 1900, then later transfered to Von Lengerke & Antoine in 1902 where it was sold. I was fortunate to purchase a VL&A leg of mutton case that fits it perfectly.

I Just can't pick a favorite, they each have something special to me about them.
