Thank you gentlemen for your replies. I knew I would get some good responses and y'all didn't disappoint. We had a family reunion this weekend and I passed your recommendations on to my brother-in-law.

I am at least partly to blame for him looking at a 16 gauge gun. I let him shoot my French O/U and converted him to double guns and 16 gauge. He is trying to spread the love of 16 gauge doubles. He still prefers O/U to S/S so I still have a little work to do. 😉
