About those choke values on the GunBroker ad, no Sterlingworth 16 was ever choked .042 and .049, and those certainly are not IC and Mod as advertised. Who did the case colors? Wasn't a guy named Ed, was it? |

Two comments,
Maximum smoke. You are correct, I was attempting to list the choke constriction and the muzzle wall thickness in the same sentence. My grammar caused the confusion. Description has been corrected.
Gunnut,
The colors are bone and charcoal color case hardening. The work was performed by Justin at classiccasecolorsllc out of Idaho. |

Very pretty gun! I have those chokes on a 12ga Sterly; it's a great combination. |
