I have a 16ga Merkel o/u that has 29 " barrels weights 6lb 7oz and feels as good as any gun I have ever held. Made in the mid 1920's. It has killed many grouse and woodcock, haven't taken it out in years, hope to this year.

I like the filing of the frame on that nice gun. I hope you get it out this Fall.
