Charlie, my first 21s were $1000 for a cased pair, oak and leather Purdey case. I once bought a 20 gauge for $650. I bought my last one several months ago for $3000. They really aren't that bad. Go for it.

Mark, I love 16 gauges for most anything except long range stuff. Maybe I should shoot a 16 Model 21 and see if it handles any better than the 12's. Currently I use a Trojan 20 for grouse and woodcock...Wonderful little gun I can carry it all day one handed and never get tired.

I used to like little guns for grouse, but I have started to like my Sauer ten with RST 7 1/2s. It weighs exactly to the ounce what my 0 frame 16 weighs.

If I shot a ten gauge like Bill does I could save a lot of the money I spend at the skeet club practicing up for grouse and woodcock season |

I thought this would be interesting I have a 20 ga 21 that i think a lot of and i like to use for dove and grouse it was made in 1938 and bought at marshall fields in chicago Dec of 38 But I all so have a late remington parker vhe 16 ga made in 1938 also that gives the squirrels and rabbits a hard time and i hope to pass these to my daughter one day and i hope that is a very long time I must say i have enjoyed this but i do have a soft spot for vintage american double guns

Dave, if I make the shoot this spring, I will bring my 16 ga 21 and let you have a go with it.
