Default Itching for a 16 gauge

My gun safe is full of 12 gauge and 20 gauge sxs's (including 3 Parkers, 2 Win 21's and a few O/U's) and I'm itching to buy something new, like a 16 gauge sxs. All my guns are box locks with a wide variety of chokes. In a 16 gauge I'd like 28" barrels with M/F or M/M chokes. I mostly pheasant and grouse hunt and take an annual pilgrimage south for quail, and of course I like shooting clays. My price range is around $2k and for that I have found several 1920-1940 era LC Smiths, a few Parker Trojans and VH's and a couple of Lefevers. I like them all, and no Parker's best. But don't know much about the others. Any opinions/suggestions/commentary would be helpful. I'm going to the Baltimore show next weekend to take another look around. Thanks.
