Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
Since joining this group about Nov last year, you guys have inspired me to really believe in the 16. ( I always did anyway, but I really thought I was alone... au contraire) In the last year, I have acquired 6 of these rascals (including the Citori) and only sold 2. that's a pretty good ratio and keeps me true to my word to the old lady, that some were just acquired for trading purposes and/or too good of a deal to pass up. I'm also set up to reload and have really benefitted from all of the knowledge and help from members of this board in getting that project off the ground.
Many of you may have heard that I missed the KS hunting trip due to a snafu with liscensing due to my own ignorance and not paying attention to details. That won't happen to me again. I'll post an update on ARK duck season soon as we are between seasons. It's been great so far.
good cheer, Paul Teague |

I will return the Merry Xmas and Happy New Year.
Unfortuneatly it was a dual between a new 26" Citori SuperLight Feather in 16 gauge and another Superposed 20 gauge Super Light Weight. The Superposed won and should be on its way in a few days. The 16 Citori was hard to hold off but I managed to do it. If one does show up at a local show for a reasonable price, i will purchase it but the 20 gauge Superposed Super Light Weights and 12 gauge for that matter are my favorite o/u.
BTW, I asked the Browning Custom Shop about 4 years ago if they were considering a 16 Superposed. I was told that they were looking at making one, but i'm afraid that's all they are doing.-Dick |
