That Bill, is frankly beyond my ken. I shoot my guns. But this one is pretty neat, the only question being what would you shoot in it? With no proof marks, you can assume it was made for black-powder. I've always assumed low pressure modern shot-shells could be used in black powder guns but again...defer to the vast experience on this board. Whatever, it is quite an excellent purchase.

But at this point the chamber length itself is not clear and that is something I'd be interested in. We found references to chambers in French shotguns in the 1880's as long as 90mm (3.5"). And are you sure of the bore size? and barrel wall thickness?
