I was a sucessful bidder on this 16 Ga Gastinne-Renette SxS. I posted some pics of the gun at the Doublegunshop.com forum while waiting for it to get here. Some members suggested the gum might actually be a 20 Ga, judging from the barrel markings. The gun finally arrived today and it is in fact a 20 Ga!!! This is the second gun I have bought at an auction that has "shrunken" from a 16 to 20.
It is in a very good condition, aside some light rust underneath the action and the barrels. It is #2 from a pair. Barrels are about 27.75" long with mirror bores, Chambers are marked as 65". Checkering is very fine. Weight is 5lbs 10oz.
