All my upland hunting is now with a 16 ga Cogswell and Harrison hammerless with 28 in barrels, choked M/F. Or, a 16 ga Jules Pierre Belgian hammer gun with 30 in barrels, choked IC/F. Both are light, pleasant to carry and hit hard with the appropriate 2 1/2 in RST loads.

I have a bunch of 16s, but my favorites are a three barrel GHE composed set, original 28" Damascus, the second set 26" Parker Special Steel, the third set being a 32" 20 gauge Vulcan Steel, and a three barrel factory GHE Damascus set, 30", 28", and 24", each with its own forend. The factory gun was purchased as a scarce 24" gun at a local show. A year later, the seller told me he had discovered two more sets of barrels for the gun I had purchased. "Would I be interested in purchasing the two additional barrel sets?" Other 16s are a DH 28" Titanic #1 frame, a DHE #1 frame Damascus, cut to a handy 24", and a high condition 32" VHE, the last two purchased on this forum. I guess its about time I went shopping.

Default The Old Sixteen

Counting my Dads Sweet Sixteen Browning A5 my mother and I got him many years ago for $265 at Osmans Spt Goods Houston. I own 8 including another DHE on the way. VHE 30", GH 26" Damascus , DHE 30",DHE 28"Damascus ,Win Model 21 Skeet Grade 28", Belgium Deforney SLE. I shoot them all and never get tired of the 16 which is what I started with when I was 10. Glad it is still around and being enjoyed!!
