I have precisely the same gun. I bought it in 2003 and it has become my "go to" upland gun ever since. Handles and points like a dream, kills birds like nobody's business!!
I had been looking for a while when I found mine-the 16 ga models are not so easy to find.
If I was not already shooting one, I'd buy yours...this model in 16 ga is a real keeper. BTW, I don't know Big Creek from Adam or have any financial interest in this matter, but I heartily recommend this model of gun...would beat you up as a range gun, but I have never enjoyed a gun so much in the field. |

Finally got pictures taken and out to those who requested them ... I hope. The picture sending is always a struggle for me when my tech support (wife) has other priorities. |

OK, gents...I'll admit that Big Creek is a fellow member of the Bar...but we have no connection beyond that. So there is no need for me to try to "sell" this gun for him due to any ulterior motive.
But...for field work this is a DAMN FINE SHOOTER!!!!!!! Add in the popular extra-length barrels and it becomes a no-brainer if you want a light, fast, bird radar in the field...(ok mine is a 26, but I still don't miss too many birds...ask Ash Goodwin about our Great Chuckar Expedition!)
Put a nice, thick kick-eze or limbsaver pad on it and get out there! |

Why do you need to put a thick recoil pad on it?

Because it is an ultra-light and will recoil somewhat. For field work, this is no problem, as you won't be constantly shooting at high volumes in most situations. But suppose you occasionally want to shoot some skeet or clays to get the "feel" of the gun or for early season "shooting tune up"...at such times a good pad will make your shooting session more pleasant. Plus, a pad is not an expensive addition...
If you are not recoil-sensitive, just shoot it as is and have fun. |

Appreciate the interest and supportive comment from my "brother" to the South. Gun is sold subject to buyer inspection, etc. It was the result of my "if one is good, two are better" thinking. I bought one the first 16ga SLF's with 26" Bbls and it quickly became one of favorite grouse guns. Am thus selling a few bird guns that have spent too much time in storage. I have a very nice Win 101 20ga SK/SK & a pretty rare 20ga Parker Reprod with 28" Q1&Q2 barrels offered on Shotgun World. |
