I have acquired a Neumann 12 guage side by side. I have been told by the previous owner that he fired many 2 and 3/4 " #4 and #6 from this gun.I would like to exchange more info about this gun.

Thank you.
Deer slugs are the shotgun shells to use when deer hunting.
It should be marked on the barrel or recieiver.
There is no "break in" shotgun. A "break open" shotgun is a single barrel, double barrel, or combination rifle/shotgun which breaks open in the sense that a lever will unlock the action, allowing the barrel to pivot at a hinge at the front of the receiver, pivoting the rear of the barrel up to expose the chamber. A shells may be loaded into the chamber and the barrel pivoted back to close the action. The act to "break in" a shotgun means to fire it a few times to loosen it up.
Yes, shorter shells are no problem.
410 shells only and only what the barrel is marked for.
I am seeking the age of my 410 double barrel shotgun. It came from my grandfather and has the following markings: Springfield Arms Co. Pat Apr 20, 1915 X57709 It has double triggers and is chambered for 2 1/2 shells. Thanks
With double triggers YES
Yes, but beware that many blank shells contain corrosive gun powder. Clean your shotgun after firing blanks to avoid pitting your barrel.
You need to take it to a gunsmith so it can be thoroughly checked.
To shoot the double shot, you have to cock it enough so it clicks and makes an L shape. Then put the darts into the orange shells and put them into the two holes at the corner of the L. Then you can fire two darts at once. then press that button at the top/middle of the gun and bend it. The shells will pop out. To shoot again, repeat the cycle.
A 41 magnum caliber revolver will shoot 410 gauge shotgun shells but is not recommended. The shot will lead the barrel rifling. There are also adaptors you can put in a shotgun that allow you to fire pistol/rifle ammunition.
Should use either 2 1/2" or 3" .410 shotgun shells.
