Good plan smile
I have a number of 3200s and some with barrel sets and some with
tube sets.
But I have wanted either a K32 or 3200 with 16 gauge barrels.

SOOOO, I just bought this

Odd that it has the trap stepped vent rib ?

I have Lothar Walther 16 gauge conversion inserts, and will need a barrel hanger and ejectors to complete the rough set.

this is why carriers are confusing in pursuit of the ultimate goal of weighing up a gun. no one I know in the sport trims guns down. its always up.
just say I/E: your 12ga bbl weighs 3 lbs.
and the total gun with the 12ga bbl on is 7.5lbs.
add a tube set any ga.....figure 1 lb.
now you have a gun weighing 8.5lbs.
great.
but, if you go back to the 12ga bbl, its only 7.5.
so....you add a 1 lb weight.
done.

but....now you have a 7.5 lb 12ga gun with an extra carrier bbl.
you add 1 lb worth of tubes.
so now you have 8.5lb gun PLUS whatever the carrier bbl is.
it WONT match the 12ga bbl set up. itll be off again.

the way I see it is a carrier bbl is only for those who choose to bypass shooting 12ga all together.
which is conflicting since all someone has to do is get a tube set and put any set in the 12ga and leave it...and never load the 12ga ever.
why get another carrier bbl?
answer: gizmo fad.

YES, you nailed it smile

I just wanted a heavy skeet 16 gauge to play with.

My light 16 gauge guns are not much fun by station 5.

Completely agree, Jon. My point is that it's easier for you to "do your part" when your muscle memory doesn't have to adapt to different weights and sight pictures. The Indian likely shot the same bow all the time, wouldn't you bet? Bet'cha he didn't shoot lightweight bows for lightweight arrows, and vise versa.

I've had a number of tubed skeet guns, from Rem 3200s to a K80. I hated them. Guns that start at 8 1/2 lbs and then tubed make for some really slow guns. All of them went down the road. I prefer a 4 barrel set for a multigauge skeet gun. The "carrier" barrel concept is about halfway between to me. The exception I ran across was a 682 with a carrier setup. It was a light (low MOI) gun to start with.

Where have you been hiding Chuck? I like better balanced guns too, but Im betting most tournament skeet shooters will not agree with your sentiment. They like those barrel heavy tube sets. When tubes became more and more popular, 4-barrel sets became less and less popular with those guys.


Socialism is almost the worst.
