Daryl, I too have 16 SW deluxe with the grip cap , but unfortunately the mid ivory bead was missing when I bought it (back in the mid '80'sfor $300).
I've shot alot of birds with that gun, but more often now carry a Savage SW16 that someone cut the barrels back too 26 1/2 and has a very nice replacement stock. I think I shoot it better. I have a late production SW20 that has 60% or better case colrs and a nicer than normal wood--it is definately a $1200 or better gun.
