....But for some, I guess, having more information is a bad thing. Not sure why, but to each his own.
Just maybe, here's your reason. I thought this was a consumer protection issue. Is there any mandate that couldn't be justified because a few know what's best for all. As the pages go by, the percentage of rouge chambers is increasing. Careful, you may not have bought the only safe 20ga. in the country just because you memorized some book of proof marks.
What if you woke up tomorrow and decided to buy a Winchester M-12. Is it going to be the British proof marked permanently altered magazine gun or the inadequately marked American original. Same for the hundred year old Purdey, you gonna buy the one that bubba took a file to the proof marks or the correct and original one as intended by the maker.
