Leather and Laces for my 16

3 Attachment(s)

Gonna run the 16 tomorrow on doves.
I love this gun, but prefer more modern dimensions.
The lace-on leather comb gets me there.
Right at 6 lbs, with 30" bbls, and factory tight chokes, this gun floats like a butterfly, and stings like a bee!

BTW, the dove hunting was pretty slow, and I mostly handled the dogs.
I did however miss all 4 shots I did take, so I'm gonna take a Mulligan, and take the 16 out again this coming Saturday.

Hey, Todd, you went, used a wonderful piece of history, and had the pups out...what more does any hunter really need?

I can't blame the 140 year old gun, when it was the 70 year old kid that did the missing :)
