Just an odd question about the history of these guns. Why did they make a Sportsman Skeet in 16 gauge when 16 gauge isn't one of the 4 gauges used to shoot skeet? Was that not established until after the 1940s when these guns were made? Just curious since I have never seen a "skeet" gun in 16 gauge.
they allowed 16ga to be shot with 1 1/8oz loads in the 12ga event, since so many people had 16ga guns at the time; and, sub ga's werent even an event until way later in history. 16ga skeet guns are hens teeth. thus why my other ad with an early model 12 win 16ga skeet gun is so high up in value. fyi...first skeet games were played in 1932. 16ga skeet guns fell off after ww2. now...find me a buyer!
