[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5821273, member: 1409"] Now I'm thinking I [I]REALLY[/I] need to take you up on the offer to go duck hunting before the season ends :D Just to see what some of yore rich buddies might offer for my Sweet 16. I thought about getting some bismuth shells, but maybe some #9 TSS might be the stuff? I have a complete set of barrels from Cylinder to Full, along with a Buck Special barrel. The Sweet 16 was once my "go-to" gun for everything from quail, squirrels, ducks, to deer. I would also just laugh at a $1,500 offer for one of mine. Similar here. The 1st duck I ever had mounted - I shot with a Remington model 11 (A5 copy) in 20 gauge. That was my 1st shotgun. Also killed my first deer with it, actually about my 1st everything. Saved up my money and bought a Belgium Browning Sweet-16 when I myself was 16 yrs old. When I bought the Sweet 16, my uncle then bought my Model 11 20 ga from me, then years later, he left it to me in his will, along with his Sweet 16. The last few times I've taken a Sweet 16 afield has been bird hunting over some world-class dogs with some avid bird hunters who appreciate the heritage of the 16 gauge as the southern gentleman's favorite gauge for most everything. When I bought my Sweet 16, I spent more my hunting time quail hunting than for any other game. Now we have no quail. Such a shame most of you have never experienced bird hunting with good bird dogs, and lots of quail (wild quail, not some hard to flush, weak flying pen-raised birds). [/QUOTE]
