I'm selling this sweet Simson 16 gauge in very good condition to fund a recent buy. It has DT/Extr, good case color, 2 3/4" chambers, choked light full and full, has 28" barrels, and the stock has not been altered, has no cracks, and nice original finish.

A good condition 16 gauge SXS by a quality gunmaker is getting hard to find and very expensive. It's the top gun in this photo. I'll get more posted soon.

$1,250.00 firm, plus $65 standard shipping

Also weight? They used two frame sizes on the 16s I think.

This is the correct smaller 16/20 frame.

It is cast for a RH shooter.

Proofed 3/55 and made by the older master gunsmiths.

Very tight gun

Smooth triggers

Completely unmolested screws, all are indexed.

Minor marks in the wood/a hunted gun (by me) but taken care of

Bores are pristine

VG original bluing

Crisp checkering

HMMM...I might be talking myself into keeping the gun. I think I might have. shocked

Great to hear from you, my friend. You did the gun more justice than I did. wink
