I have a very nice AL-2, 12 ga purchased in the early 70's. I plaln to give it to my 12 yr old grandson. He likes to shoot trap and in the fall we hunt birds in So. Dak. and MN. Some of the area we hunt in are limited to steel shot. The gun has a 30 inch full choke barrel.
Do we risk damaging the gun if we shoot steel? I can't afford to buy him another gun and the AL2 in in very nice condition. Replacement barrels do not seem to be available.
When we hunt in steel areas he uses a different borrowed gun. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks
