I recently purchased a 16 ga. A-5. Unlike other A-5s I have seen (in any gauge)this one doesn't have any gauge engraved on the receiver ("Sweet sixteen", "Light Twenty" etc.) It's a round knob, Made in Belgium, Browning Arms Company St Louis, Mo, serial # X66****. Are all sixteen's "Sweet" or is there a weight or some other difference?

  ALL 16'S ARE SWEET BUT NOT ALL ARE "SWEET 16'S". THE INFO YOU GIVE SOUNDS LIKE A STANDARD 16 GA A-5. GREAT GUNS JUST A BIT HEAVIER THAN THE "SWEET 16"
  
  I WOULD RATHER BE DUCK HUNTING.
