Good morning! First post; be gentle
My father gave me a Savage 24c Combination .22/20ga. Break action, single shot, fun little survival gun. I would like to put a little scope on it, which brings my to my question:
There is actually an engraved message on the barrel (paraphrase) "Do not fire the shotgun with a scope attached." I am wondering if shotgun scopes have improved since this 24c was produced to the point that this message is obsolete, and a relatively durable shotgun scope would be fine, or if there is something about the design of this gun that makes firing the shotgun unadvisable with a scope, regardless of scope quality.
Thanks for your time; looking forward to checking out this forum!
