I have a 16 0 frame straight grip with BTF. There out there just be patient. The search can be both fun and a learning experience. I found mine in an add in the back of Double Gun Journal.

So Rich, you found the needle in the haystack, eh?
Glad they are out there. Perhaps I'll be as fortunate as you in finding one.

Cheers,
Brett

I found a bunch of 16s on GI that I would buy if I needed one.

Brett,

Welcome! Keep looking for the 0 frame 16 with the beavertail and straight stock. That will leave the same gun with a straight hand stock and splinter fore end for the rest of us who love that configuration.

P.S. I'd advise buying a Parker to use while you hunt for your holy grail. You may find it's just what the doctor ordered.
