I love the 16 not ashamed to say it. First of all to address scaled frames, I have four semi autos built on 16 ga. frames: Belgian Browning Sweet 16, 11-48, and two 48 Sportsmans. My SxSs are all 16 ga. frames two Ithacas, a Lefever and even an East German SxS marked SUHL. My son shoots a Browning BPS Uplander(?) that appears to be a scaled frame. I gave my daughter Two Rem. 31s, one LW and a standard on 16 frames. They are out there, just have to look. Ammo is very seldom on sale, have picked up sone on close outs at the end of the season, gun shows sometimes have deals. And if think 16 is expensive, another passion I have is 28s and a 24 ga.
