| They were around a year ago when I was looking . I have not seen a Fair for a while in 16 ga . New England Arms had them while they were in business . Cabelas would be your best bet . |

| THANKS. I am familiar with the buy out of NEA's stock of these by Cabelas. They are sold out. I thought I might find someone who has one and would like to part with it. Thanks again |

| I just saw one at the Cabelas in Richfield WI. It was listed on their website in the gun library. It may be a different model 900,but it had pistol grip not english. 28 in barrel and petty sure it had choke tubes. |

| No, I gave up and purchased a new Cortona Prestiege in 16 Ga. These are the new imprts of the FAIR guns, only upgraded. I will receive it this week and post an opinion on it. |

Any feedback on the new gun? Is the prestige the only model they offer in 16GA?

| No, they also offter at least the base gun in 16 gauge. My gun arrived today and there is a problem with the forend snapping in place. It just will not lock. My gunsmith called the distributor and we are waiting for a solution. I will know better once they call us back to see what I think of the company, however the gun is very nice with a great stock and nice fit and finish. |

| Well, I am still looking for a 16 O/U. The Cortona Prestiege turned out to be a bust. The gun arrived and the forend would not go onto the gun, no matter how hared my gunsmith tried. Also, I was told the gun did not have any dings (this was a sales rep gun) and it sported a large half moon dent right in the middle of the forend. I sent it back and canceled the sale. Be carefull of this line. |
