Hold on a minute Charlie... I had that 8 gauge at my house and any damage that was gonna happen to that gun has already happened....
if we're talkin about the same gun...


What I mean to say is, that gun shall forevermore be indestructible.... is that better?

The first time I've seen something like the Damascus and Twist warnings appear on shotgun shell boxes was the early 12-gauge 3-inch Super-X loads from about 1925 or 1926 --



No mention on this 2 9/16 inch 16-gauge Super-X box of about the same vintage --









The one-piece shell boxes phased in in the 1933-35 time frame, and I've never seen one of those without Damascus and Twist warnings.
