if you had $10k...my answer
Thank you all for your input. The responses were all very interesting and have decided to look for one of the following in 2017, and buy the best deal: 1) Win 21 16ga 28" IC/Full PG BT SST, 2) Parker 16ga 0 frame Top Lever 28" IC/Full PG SF DT Best grade and condition affordable and in 50xxx-54xxx serial range or 3) Parker 16ga 0 or 1 frame Hammerless IC/Full PG SF SST or DT Best grade and condition affordable.
I'll be flexible to barrel choke configuration but like the wide/tight patterns. I've been shooting IC/Full for most of my life and for almost everything including quail... never seem to get that second close shot off fast enough. So I'm going to stick with what has worked best for me. I have 2 Win 21's now, 20 and 12, and would like to slot in a 16. A Parker 16 would take me in a new direction and would be alongside my 12 Top Lever and 20 3-barrel Repro. I thank our excellent economy for giving me this opportunity to buy a great gun.
