Mr. Stokeld:

"No lead shot" is a reality. Look at the range at or near St. Petersburg, FL. where they are in litigation over shooting as well as have banned lead shot. Look at the Federal hunting properties where lead shot is not allowed except at the rifle ranges and for muzzleloaders. State properties will be the next to fall and private outfitters may hold on for a while, but "no lead shot" is inevitable and I would say within the next 7-10 years. But there's so much more character, etc. in a vintage double.

Kind Regards,

Raimey
