[QUOTE="Kimber45, post: 5821074, member: 5758"] I cringe every time I see one possibly loaded with steel shot. Have seen a lot of barrel bulges (and worse). I’d be taking the possible ticket for slingin lead vs ruining that beaut for sure! Almost everyone I grew up hunting with had an A5 in the blind. I was shooting a borrowed Wingmaster Magnum my 1st season - and had bought my own by the next. My 1st season hunting a blind would’ve been 1976. However, killed a few in 75 with an old Steven’s single shot - and that thing kicked so hard it made you decide real damn quick if you were serious about huntin, or not 😁 .. I still enjoy seeing folks hunt those old guns. I know a fella who has dozens on top of dozens of A5’s.. Oh.. and the 1st duck I ever had mounted - I shot with a Remington model 11 (A5 copy) in 16 gauge. [/QUOTE]
