I've never owned a shotgun, and have only fired them a couple times, but I'm looking to purchase a Saiga sometime in the near future, and primarily have some questions about ammunition use (and the stickies didn't quite have all the info I'm looking for):
If I were to purchase a shotgun (namely the Saiga), are there any modifications necessary to allow use of slugs or shot?
Is there a situation/configuration where both could be placed in the same tube/magazine without problems (like blowing up myself or the firearm)?
Is configuration even an issue?
I think I have a general idea, but what exactly are chokes, and what are they used for?
As with handgun/rifle ammunition, are there manufacturers that have particularly "dirty" rounds?
Thanks ahead of time for the answers
