No 16s, but my first shotgun was a Coast to Coast 20 gauge pump made by Savage. |

I have a Stevens model 94m with a 32" barrel, at the moment it is my only 16 gauge
I bought it from a gunshop near the old Greenham Common Air Base and being as it has no British proof marks it may have been brought over the pond by a US airman.
It maybe a cheap single barrel shotgun but it does the job and is a keeper... |

3 of my 16's fall into that category- sort of. I have a Crescent that was in pieces in my dad's garage when he died. After a little clean up and stock repair, it rides behind the seat of my truck. I just picked up a Western Auto Model SB60A that is set for a clean up and a new recoil pad. The other one is a Stephens Arms and Tool Co Model94 that is at least 100 years old this year. |

I have my dad's 16 ga. Springfield-Stevens No. 215 sxs hammer gun that he bought new at a hardware store for $15.00 in the early 1930's. I recently bought a single shot .410 bore Bridge Gun Co. "Black Prince" that was probably made in 1927 or 1928. |

Does "Made for Abercrombie & Fitch" qualify it as a hardware store gun? |
