I'll have to handle one and see how I like it.

I may get a 20ga o/u.

But thought a 16ga might add a lil spice to the cabinet. Really like my 28ga o/u, although I'm guessing the 28ga might be more popular these days than the 16ga, although I kinda doubt the 16 is going anywhere, not that it's needed, may not be a great reason to get a 16 over a 20 or over a 12, but I think it'll always be around.

I remember being a boy and asking my dad about the "gauges" and hearing about the 28 and 16 always sounded like the mysterious ones, so I think I always wanted 1 of each! although I still like the 12, 20, and .410 too.
