If your shotgun has Damascus barrels,then by all means do not fire modern smokeless ammo through your shotgun.I would have your shotgun looked at by a qualified gunsmith before attempting to fire any ammo through a shotgun of this age.
Matters on the clip size that the shotgun comes with (or that you buy) it can be anywhere through 6 shells to 12.
No, you can not shoot anything but 12 gauge shotgun shells through a 12 gauge shotgun. Never use any ammunition other than what the firearm was designed for.
being that your savage/stevens shotgun was made between 1933-1945,I would have a gunsmith check your shotgun to make sure it is safe to use and at that time question him on use of steel shot through your shotgun.
It may have laminated barrels or short chambers which would not be safe with any but the lightest loads equivalent to shells that were available 75-100 years ago. Have it examined by an experienced gunsmith and follow his advice.
No, you generally cannot bring shotgun shells through customs when traveling internationally. Firearms and ammunition are strictly regulated and often prohibited in many countries. Even in the United States, bringing ammunition across state lines may require compliance with specific laws and regulations. Always check the customs regulations of both your departure and destination countries before traveling.
Oxford Arms was a tradename used by the Belknap Hardware Company on shotguns they retailed through their mail-order catalog from c.1880-1920. Most were inexpensive utility grade guns made in Belgium and will have Belgian proofmarks underneath the barrels. The barrels themselves will generally be made of twist construction. Hammers and other parts would have to be made. Value is as a decorator piece only, $100-$200. Guns from this era and construction are considered unsafe to shoot with modern ammunition. www.countrygunsmith.net
Yes, you can shoot slugs through a Stevens 12 gauge model 67 E shotgun. However, it is important to ensure that the shotgun is chambered for 12 gauge ammunition and that the barrel is designed to handle the pressure generated by firing slugs. Using the correct type of slug ammunition, such as rifled slugs or sabot slugs, can help optimize accuracy and performance. Additionally, it is recommended to check the manufacturer's guidelines and consult with a firearms expert for further advice on safely shooting slugs through your specific shotgun model.
Yes, you can find hammers and firing pins for an Enders Royal 12 gauge shotgun through various sources. Specialty gun parts retailers, online auction sites, and forums dedicated to vintage firearms are good places to start. Additionally, contacting a gunsmith or a manufacturer that specializes in vintage shotgun parts may yield results. Always ensure that any parts purchased are compatible with your specific model.
Owning a shotgun for home defense is becoming a necessity for a lot of people these days. Shotguns can be purchased through websites like Guns & Ammo or American Rifleman; as well as stores like Cabela's.
No, is the short answer. The long answer is a little more complex. The .45 Colt and the .410 share similar base dimensions which make them interchangeable in certain firearms. Usually, however, you find .45 Colt/.410 shotgun combinations, meaning the firearm is designed to shoot .45 Colt, but will also accept .410 shot shells. The Taurus Judge, and Bond Derringer's Snake Slayer are two pistol examples. There are many variations, but the unifying factor is that these guns are designed to handle higher chamber and barrel pressures generated by the .45 Colt cartridge. The barrel of your typical .410 shotgun is very thin in comparison, and is designed to fire shotgun ammunition only. So, if the firearm is specifically designed for it, you can shoot .410 shotgun ammunition through a .45 Colt barrel. You cannot, nor should you attempt, to load a .45 Colt round into a .410 shotgun.
Any sporting goods store should have at least a few boxes of 10 gauge shells, but probably not a large selection. You have a shotgun that is between 76 and 119 years old in 2006. Before you buy any ammunition, have the gun checked by a competent gunsmith and if he approves it he should also recommend the proper load. Even the oldest of these Winchesters should be OK with smokeless powder, but I doubt if any would stay together through a box of heavy magnum shells.
