FN 16 gauge, side lock, ejector.
The shotgun has at one time been re-blued, the stock refinished, and checkering re-cut. You are the best judge of how it will suit you, but I've enjoyed it as a nice looking 16 gauge with desirable attributes and features.
The stock has no cracks, but there is a bit of a chip away at the edges of the fore-end, and a spot on the butt that is refinished over a discoloration and slight dent.
It is a lively gun and something I wouldn't hesitate to take out and enjoy on any type of trip.
Side-clips, ejectors, greener style cross bolt third fastener, swivels. No rust (I probably should have cleaned off the grease on the receiver before the photos...)
14 1/2 lop from front trigger to a gel pad, 6.5 lbs, 28 1/4" barrels, 2 3/4 shells, I believe the barrels are choked mod and full. (I don't have a gauge)
I am not a dealer, Contact jroregonbauer@msn.com for more information. These are all the photos I have.
Asking $1200

| Looks like a neat gun. If I were in the market, I'd be interested in knowing the length of the barrels, date of manufacture, and the weight. Good luck. |

I'll do some measuring and weighing tonight. I do not know the year of manufacturing.
Thanks for the note. |

| Also, Illaheman, any thoughts on how you think this gun should be graded? |

Can not answer and be in the spirit of the rules. I can not give you a percentage on this gun as it is up for sale.
Rule 5 states:
5) Additional posts should only seek further information about the 16ga. gun in question. NO posts are allowed that critique or editorialize the Author's intent, motives, or competence. This forum is intended to be a friendly posting of 'want ads' and should not merit responses that can be taken personally.
Would be a nice hunting gun

Oops, consider my question withdrawn. I didn't intend to overstep the boundaries or editorialize. I've changed my post to address only the seller of the gun.
Is it okay to post a general question on grading without reference to particular guns in the discussion section? |
