*Note the .016 wall thickness which is below the recommended minimum, but it must be stressed that it is about 5" from the muzzle of the right barrel where there is extremely low pressure. This explains the gun having been shot regularly for the last 20 years by the last owner without any issues. This area of low pressure is why one can have their barrels ported (drill holes in the end of the barrel) to reduce muzzle jump. When it comes to safety, we cannot and will not encourage risk. For those reasons we cannot recommend using this gun as a 16g. , This is the perfect Parker to have Briley 20g. and 28g. tube sets made for and enjoy the gun with those smaller gauges. *** Note: To see this gun with high resolution photos and a zoom-in feature, go to the vintagedoubles main site and search for the gun ID: 6088 or browse the main site to see our full gun collection.
