Rick, thanks for the new Forum on the 16 gauge. Been a lover of the 16 ga. Since getting a Ithaca 37 16 ga. For Christmas in 59. I have had many 16’s since, probably 40 or 50. In 2015 I purchased another safe an had all my guns out on tables in my gun room. On two tables I had all my 16’s lined up and my wife came in an asked me were all of these shotguns 16 gauge. Told her yes and she counted them and said “ you have 14 16ga.’s “. She said wouldn’t it be cool if you had 16 16ga.’s. Yep I said and two months later I had 16 . To day I have pared it down to 7. Ran out of safe room.
“ 16’s hit like a 12 and carry like a 20 “. Long live the 16.
Woops, just added another 16, an old Noble pump, maybe use it as a loner or I might use it for a fence post.
