In the Reilly gun database, pin-fires, at least in extant guns, still outnumber center-fire shotguns, until about 1872.

There seems to be a creep back in time perceptions for the wide-spread use of a seemingly practical invention. We assume their advantages would be immediately understood. Actually these improvements seemed to take awhile to be accepted in conservative gun shooting fraternity. Center-break guns did not really take-off in UK until 1857. Center-fire guns finally seemed to supplant pin-fires about 1872 in UK. Steve Nash is the expert.
