Model 16, Light-Weight 16-Gauge Shotgun. 

The lightest gun and 
the lightest load that will do the work, mark the greatest pleasure for 
the sportsman; the reduced weight of gun and shells to be carried is 
truly a blessing, readily appreciated by the experienced hunter. 
The ZZert2 Model 16 is the only light- 
weight repeating shotgun made, and so well is it 
built of selected material, with the special LZarkin 
method of boring and choking, that it is actually 
more effective than most of the 12-gauge guns of a 
few years ago. 
All the features of the famous fZar/in 12-gauge 
are present in the Model 16. ‘The solid top and 
side ejector—the automatic hang-fire safety recoil 
block—the ‘¢ Special Smokeless Steel’’ barrel—the 
solid matted rib on the frame—the beautiful hang 
and finish—but each part is made a little smaller, a 
little lighter and a little neater. 
All the parts of the breech and the closed-in action are 
made of the time-tried ZZzr/z steel drop forgings and are 
very strong. 
The barrel is guaranteed to pattern over 240 pellets No. 714 
shot in a 30-in. circle at 35 yards. No quail or woodcock 
can get through a pattern like this, and for grouse, prairie 
chickens, teal, wood ducks, squirrels, rabbits, etc., this gun 
is unsurpassed. 
Write TO-DAY for our Catalog, which describes in detail the Model 16, as 
well as the full ZZzr/z2 line of guns; mailed free for six cents in stamps.
