I was on Midwest Gunworks website and saw they had a couple new Mossberg 16 gauge over unders listed under out of stock section.
They always list new guns here before they get them, usually with no photo yet.
So I went to Mossbergs website and sure enough they were listed there.
A Gold model with 30 inch barrels and extended tubes and A Silver model with 28 inch barrels and flush tubes.
Looks like another Made in Turkey shotgun and similar to the Stevens 555's.
That's ok, I bought a Stevens 555 last year to have as a backup/bad weather gun and it was better than I expected. Lightweight and the wood was nicer than I thought it would be for $600. Here's the link if anyone is interested.

Made by Khan Arms in Turkey.
What I found interesting is that the 30" barreled model lists 3" chambers, while the 28" does not. In fact doesn't list any chamber size. It also says the 30" weighs 1/2 lb more.
They also show 2 different receiver designs.
Here is a 20 ga write-up

| Might be a typo, probably used the 12 ga. data. |

This actually sounds quite good.
I would buy one of these inexpensive Turkish guns to shoot 16ga skeet, so I don't have to pick up hulls from my mod12 or Auto5 sweet sixteen.
For inexpensive 16ga OU, there are just some from CZ, Stevens 555, and Tristar has several. Tristar also has two semiauto 16ga, the excellent Viper G2 and Viper G2 Bronze:
Cz only 16ga:
16ga, 1049$ redhead premier, fixed choke IC MOD 28". Black chrome all, 8 lbs
" while the 16 gauge has a 2 3/4″ chamber and fixed IC/MOD chokes. All Redhead Premiers have a mechanical safety with barrel selector, Turkish walnut stocks and independent auto ejectors."
Stevens 555 $769 and 555E (Ejectors) $939
