Mike, I think lot #12 was a DHE 16GA. Correct me if I am wrong.

I was interested in that one but $7200.00 was too steep for the condition it was in for me.

I would like to know what the buyer is going to do with that one. I would like to see it if it is restored.

Folks go a bit nuts over 0 frame 16s lately, don’t you think?

It had everything I wanted in one, but the price. I would have had to have a longer stock made. That additional cost would have had me in to deep.

Funny, in my talk with Josh prior to the auction, he had said, "Well, it's not like it's a $7K gun."

0 frame hype. We’ve done this.

As far back as I can remember, and I’ve been a member for 25 years, folks have always been a bit nuts over 0-frame 16s…. Heck, I’ve bought 6 or 7 hammerguns and as many hammerless 0-frame 16s and still have several. Aside from a 28 gauge I find the 0-frame 16 to be just about as nice to handle and shoot.
