Can you use a 410 shotgun for deer hunting?

In most states, yes (check YOUR state game laws through the game commission website) HOWEVER- I would not recommend it. The load of shot, or the energy of a .410 slug, is simply too small to reliably and cleanly kill a deer. It is more likely to wound a deer that will die in a day or two.

Where is the serial number on new elgin arms shotgun?

These were made many years ago, and may not HAVE a serial number. Serial numbers were not required by law on rifles and shotguns until 1968. Yes, it is perfectly legal to own a firearm that never HAD a serial number IF the law did not require it at the time the gun was made. It is illegal to remove any serial number from a firearm, or to possess one that has had the SN removed.

What side is the bore on a gun?

The bore refers to the hole in the gun barrel thru which the projectile (bullet) passes. Some guns have a smooth bore, but many modern guns, both pistols and especially rifles, have a rifled bore, that is, the bore has a helical (spiral) groove that causes the projectile to spin as it flies thru the air. The diameter of the gun's bore determines the size of the bullet or shell (e.g. .22, .45, 9mm, etc.)

What is a shot string?

Shotguns fire shells with many small pellets- or shot. The shot string is a 3 dimensional view of the shot in flight. When bird hunting with a shotgun, your goal is to have the shot string intersect the bird in flight.

What is your boito 410 side by side double barrel shotgun worth?

What Is at the muzzle end of the shotgun barrel and controls the spread of the shot?

It's called a choke, and restricts the bore a few hundredths of an inch. Most are round, for hunting, but there are some called "duckbills" that spread the shot laterally for combat purposes, though they're not popular anymore because they didn't offer a significant advantage. There are fixed chokes, permanently part of the barrel. There are adjustable chokes, which turn to constrict. There are removable chokes, which set in place with a wrench.
