crbutlerInteresting.
I've heard of them, but never seen one!
Good luck finding more ammo for $4.95 a box

I've been told the ammo is much more desirable than the little gun.

skl1I have one that was my Great Grandpa's in New Mexico territory. It's not in as good shape as yours. He had a general store with a dirt floor and shot it at rats getting into bags of grain.
Old Western Scrounger had ammo for it. Bought a bunch. But you can see the shot arc as it leaves the barrel.
My Grandma had a framed newspaper clipping in her house from when Pancho Villa raided her town. And she saw moon landings and personal computers before she died!

That Fiocchi would work as the original 2 boxes that I have are worth more than the little shotgun.

skl1Butch,
Yes, sorry. You meant the vintage ammo is valuable, not that it's hard to find something shootable in the gun.
