Would be great if you shared as much info as you'd be willing to at

Don't mind sharing. I will get it out of the safe when I get time and try to take some photos and get the details as to barrel weights etc. It is mod full as I recall. I friend of mine bought it from a widow in Noxubee Co. Miss. He also got a 20 gauge that the owner used a lot for bird hunting. The stock has scars from where he used it to push down bob wire fences when he crossed them. He must not have found much use for the 16 either, based on its conditon. My friend referred to it as a three legged cow. I bought it because of its condition. I have never shot it. The 32 inch "trap" guns must have had less drop as it fits well. I was invited to a tower pidgon shot at Westervelt Lodge (about 30 minutes away) a couple of years back. I should have taken it then although my straight stocked Ideal 12 with double triggers and ejectors did well. I had the Smith opened to ic improved mod by Mike Orlen a few years back. Only weighs 6.5# but with 1 oz loads makes a great dove gun. I was offered three times what I paid for the 16 a few years back but don't know what I would replace it with. Sorry to ramble.
