After sitting in the closet for a couple years unused by me a friend was going to go phez hunting and asked to borrow it. He returned the gun stating he had got his limit for two days. He was using Super x loads. AFter gaining a little more knowledge about the gun I realized it was unsafe. That old circa 1910 twist barreled Baker had significantly pitted bores from one end to the other and about 12 small dents on the barrels and held up to those Super X loads. Still have the gun and and there was no appearant damage. One thing that probably helped was someone had cut the barrels and the chokes measure IC/IC. Last edited by 2holer; 09/28/13 08:06 AM.
