to post a pic the pic must exist on the internet .
if you have webspace or a webpage it can be uploaded there , or a place like photo bucket
many internet providers give you limited space with your account
once the photo exists on the web its a matter of copying the location
its kinda hard to describe but reletivly easy to do.

Field grade 16 gauge. Serial number 433xxx, made in 1926.
Not a pristine example but in pretty good shape. Like all the early NID 16s this one has 2 9/16" chambers.

Very nice, guys! Considering their age and I am sure were used constantly, I would say they are looking great!

Walter, those are three beautiful guns!
If your user name is your real name, I want you to know I have a copy of your book and it has given me much valuable information and many hours of pleasure. Welcome to this forum and thank you for posting these photos!

I would not classify that double as a gun so much as I would call it a museum piece.
it is simply magnificent.

Thanks 1977cutcher! The crazy part is I bought it on Gunbroker and the seller's photos were so poor I thought the wood (and maybe the metal) had been refinished. His description didn't make any fancy claims, he just it was "in good condition." I didn't bid very high, but fortunately I was the high bidder.
I was shocked when I unwrapped the gun and saw it was all original and in mint condition! Most of my Gunbroker purchases have not been this lucky.

call503russ, your gun has character! A 28ga NID is hard to find in any condition. Thanks for sharing it with us!
