Sweet looking gun indeed. Wrong gauge though. Never warmed up to the 16 gauge like I do the 12's. I'll keep it in mind this Sat. going to an area gun show and a dealer I know has a 12 gauge AE- 30" No. 3 wt. barrels- also has a clean VHE 12 gauge same configuration-No. 2 frame size, as Parker never used a numerical scale for barrel wts.- they just stamped it on the flats--Not to worry about me shooting myself in the foot, or any other part of my body--Every gun I handle is considered to be a loaded gun- too bad that ego-stricken actor Baldwin didn't seem to follow that caution- RWTF
