I didn't want to hijack the current thread on Browning A-5's so I'll start this one. I want to buy a Sweet Sixteen and would like some input from some Sweet Sixteen owners. onpoint has been very helpful but thought I might hear from others.
I want a 26" barrel and would prefer one with a rib. Which is a better choice a Belgium made or one of the newer ones made in Japan. I think the Belgium's are lighter weight but the choke tubes would be nice. I've got my eye on a very nice Sweet Sixteen made in the mid 50's that is in "mint" condition but it has a plain barrel. But it is choked IC which is what I would want in a fixed choke.
Not sure which way to go. HELP!
