[QUOTE="Davey Crockett, post: 54054, member: 367"] My Dad had talked about shooting 16 gauge but he never talked it up and I never thought to ask where it ended up and why. The old timers were like us but with way less money to spend on hunting equipment. With population growth I can imagine one by one the 16s were handed down or wore out and Dad got a new gun to replace it, Something bigger , better and faster to keep up to neighbor jones. and like today the industry followed the money. The only shotguns my dad owned by the time I came around were a Sears bolt action 12 gauge that he ordered through the catalog and Grandpas old meniscus barrel 10 gauge. [/QUOTE]
