On the theme of 10g and crazy

A post on the LCSCA Forum in Dec. 2014 regarding a 1906 No. 0 10g:
I was at a farm where a guy I have known for a couple years came out with this L.C. smith. He first shot the gun with Federal Premium Vital-Shok 3 1/2 Inch Magnum copper-plated 1100 fps 27 pellets No. 1 buck (27 pellets of #1 buck is about 2 1/2 oz.). I still have the box and 1 live shell. He fired one shell out of each barrel with no problems. I asked if I could shoot the gun...and fired 1 shell out of each barrel.
I have never seen a gun this old nevertheless shoot one. I thought it would be cool to hunt with it. I'm guessing from your comment not such a good idea.

and this

The gun was offered for sale again in 2016 - “My brothers shotgun, he has had it approx 2 years. And fired it 50 plus times with factory smokeless 3.5” Magnums, shot a turkey with it this spring!”
