Thants funny someone put up a post alredy on this. If anyone wants more info go to www.remington.com and click on "new things for 2002". Then go to the firearms section. Its a pretty interesting shotgun. Its kind of a shame that I cant reload for that gauge. Well getting wads would be a pain. But who knows.

RE: REMINGTON'S MODEL 870 16 GAUGE
I have an old 870 wingmaster in 16 and a winchester model 12 in 16ga. My dad and my brother each have a model 1100 16 ga. We have been reloading 16's for years and haven't any problems with getting wads. Although I must admit to laziness for the past several years, I haven't reloaded anything. I love the 16 though, too bad we have to use steel for ducks now days.

RE: REMINGTON'S MODEL 870 16 GAUGE
My dad just gave my the old Fox Sterlingworth side by side in 16 ga. Kicks like a mule but a real good shooter. He also gave me close to 10 boxes of ammo, all paper shells marked "Magnum" WOW. It is a beautiful gun, not sure of its worth but kinda hesitant to take it out grousing. Anybody have any ideas on whether it should hang (value collector) or hunt (shooter)

Rod it's worth about 50 bucks the checks in the mail!!! acually depending on shape I'm looking at my gun list and they run anywhere from900 to 1700 for the 16's they aren't as common as the 12's which run about 700 or so also depends on where it was made philadelphia or utica sounds like a nice old double i love my little ithaca 16 double
