And for the record, 3 1/2s in that thing will jar your fillings loose. The gun is very light.

I have a shotgun question for some of you. I had a patient whose husband passed away a few years ago, and she knew I was a hunter because her husband and I had talked about it when he was in the office. She brought a list of guns he had to me one day and asked if I'd be interested in in perhaps buying some of them. I said sure I would. I go to her house at lunch one day, and she has a Browning Belgium Sweet 16 with gold trigger and inlay, very good shape and a Browning .22, also Belgium and in excellent shape. I bought them both. I still have the .22 but sold the Sweet 16. I know some of you will say I'm nuts, but I tried to shoot the thing, and I just can't shot those shotguns with the jacked up breech like the Auto 5 and the like.

 

Do any of you have a Sweet 16 and still shoot it? Or the 12 ga of the similar frame?

 

Passed down from my Grandfather, I have a Belgium Browning Sweet Sixteen with the gold trigger too. It's my fav and it has no price. Absolutely love this gun.

After doing a fair amount of research I am leaning towards purchasing this gun. I would use it for duck, geese and primarily turkey. What do you guys think? Good buy?

Has anyone used or heard anything about this shotgun?

 

I own one. I don't use it very much because I also own a Super Black Eagle II. However, I think this is one of the best multi use guns for the money out on the market.

The only thing that I may be considering is upgrading to the SuperNova. Thanks for the info!
