My good buddy just picked this up on an impulse buy and was given the impression from the seller he could use it as a regular shooter with no worries, the seller knowing full well he was only ever likely to fire the most common factory 12ga loads through it, he was looking for a "shooter" and does not reload or anything like that and when I told him he needed to use care in shooting that old 19th-early 20th century's Damascus, he was ready to back peddle and wished he never bought it. He wants to get the $500 he's got into it and send it off to someone who will appreciate it for what it is, but my friend doesn't reload so he is ready to catch and release this.
Any advice guys? I'm just as lost as my buddy to be honest, is this something he should hang onto as a collector piece or? Are there safe and mild loads he could use that wouldn't jeopardize the integrity of the weapon that you guys might share. I bet it would be a hot ticket among the CAS crowd......
