    Know of one that you are wondering about. It's sitting in my safe. It's a 4E 16 Lightweight with 32" barrels, straight hand stock and a Hunter One (single) trigger. When I purchased it five years ago, I was told it was one of 9 4E 16s made. Not sure if that's true and have never looked in the records at Cody Museum. Bought it for its long barrels and have used it for dove hunting a couple of times. I enjoy long barrelled 16s and other long barelled smallbores. Once saw a gun at the Vegas show in '98, supposedly owned by Clark Gable, 20 gauge Parker with 36" barrels. No bull.

    Hope this helps.
