I have inherited a 1870's Parker double barrel 12 gauge shotgun. From what I understand, back in the day they were using blackpowder loads and paper shells...would it be safe to use modern smokeless loads in this shotty? The locking mechanism is a tad loose... but, I must say the triggers are the smoothest I have ever seen on any gun...and the metal work is so nice on this thing.
Safe or not?
