Like all here so glad to see the Sweet Sixteen rolling out again and commend Browning. If sales for Browning are good perhaps this might encourage other brands to invest in the 16 gauge market again.
I really love my Franchi 48AL 28 gauge with Straight stock esp. With the slender forearm. I know this model was never made in 16 gauge but would make a perfect upland gun. I have tried several times to email Franchi concerning but never get a response. I know Franchi falls under the Beretta umbrella but there has to be a way to get input at least considered. Any ideas or interest here? Seems like timing now would be best. |

Push, but I suspect its a real long shot. I would like to see a 16 ga Benelli Legacy.
They made a 28 ga, so you never know. |

Unless the 16 gauge breaks into the shooting sports, doubt it will happen. 12, 20 and 28 gauges are competition class and help make the market for guns. |
