			Take a ruler and hold it across the muzzle to measure the inside diameter.  If its around 3/4 " =/- 1/16  its probably a 12 ga.  If its closer to 5/8" its probably a 16 ga.  If you have more sophisticated measuring devices, the muzzle diameter of a full choke 12 ga. is usually around .700 and a 16 ga. around .635, ususally within 10 thousandths either way. FWIW
