Hello All,
I just saw this thread for the first time today. I must say I'm surprised to see that no one recommended building the 16-4 off of the Full lug Model 14 shown in the link in one of the posts above.

I have a Model 14-5 which is very similar to the gun shown in the linked photo, the only difference I could see is obviously the gun in the photo doesn't have the factory wood combat stocks like mine and also the sights on the gun in the linked photo don't appear to be factory original. All that's besides the point, what is to the point is that the Model 14-5 is practically a dead ringer for the Model 16-4 except for the bore and chamber diameter and the Target Trigger on the 16-4 vs. the Combat Trigger on the 14-5. Just curious why there was no recommendation for this gun as best bet.
Thanks.
