Factory test firing would not count since they all have been proofed and patterned. The idea would be that a an “unfired” gun was never fired after it was sold to the consumer. 99% of the guns advertised as such simply are not. It should just be interpreted as a high condition gun. Many would think that if there are no brass shell transfer/impressions on the breech face, that means the gun is unfired. But realistically, a gun can be fired for at least a few boxes of shells without leaving a physical trace.
