No, a standard pistol cannot fire a shotgun shell because shotgun shells are designed to be used in shotguns, which have a larger chamber and barrel diameter. Pistol chambers are specifically sized for handgun cartridges, and attempting to fire a shotgun shell in a pistol could result in a catastrophic failure of the firearm. However, there are specialized firearms, like certain types of pistols or revolvers designed to accommodate shotgun shells, but these are exceptions rather than the rule.

What size shells can a 1940's model over and under Belgium made browning shoot gun shoot?
Depends on the gauge of the shotgun (should be marked on the barrels) and the length of shell it was made for. Some of the earlier guns used shorter shells than are now standard. Just because a shell fits does NOT mean it is safe to fire. If your shotgun is not marked with a shell length (like 2 3/4) you should have it examined by a gunsmith that can check shell length.
