Gentlemen, I'm proud to announce that www.16ga.com first went up on June 2, 2004.
Today, we count 4,700+ users on GunTalk, most of which are Members of the 16ga. Society. I want to thank all of you for making this site become the useful resource that it is today. The free and easy exchange of information comes from the civility of the membership and the sense of brotherhood that comes with owning a 16.
Thanks, again. Doug
PS- Coming soon. We are in the middle of refreshing information and look of the site and editing the listings. We are also adding some new Gear and accessories that have been requested in the past. Look for the roll out sometime in July. -D |

Happy anniversary!!! I say we make plans now for the Tuesday June 2, 2020 Sweet Sixteen Birthday Party. We gotta have a 3 day event June 1-3, multi-category shooting events, serious 16ga gun show, picnic, corporate sponsors etc, etc, etc. My calendar happens to be open then. How bout an annual dress rehearsal starting next year. Might I suggest the beautiful Blck Hills of South Dakota. |

Doug, thanks for making this one of the best and friendliest shotgun boards on the web. I'm proud to be a member. |

This is my favorite site, in part because of the 16ga and in greater part because of the members. Many thanks to Doug but also many thanks to all who help anyone without including ridicule, judgements and embarrasment.

Many thanks Doug. I had the opportunity several years ago to meet a bunch of the guys on this board, including Doug, on a hunt trip to South Dakota to promote the 16 gauge site. The trip was memorable and the people were fun. Thanks again for creating a place for us Doug.
