SOLVED

Hi everyone, was inherited an old A301 with a fixed cholw and try to determine if it can be used for skeet and hunting?

Hope you can help me and thanks in advance.

Info

The barrel is stamped 18.4 and there is a box saying AD which I believe means produced in 1978.

When measuring with a caliper the size is 18.0mm in the end so there is some restriction.

I can find 4 rings next to the made in italy inscription - unclear if that denotes constriction.

There is no Fleur de lys mark anywhere.

I dont know anything more about it as it was in a gunsafe from a recently deceased relative I was told it had been used for hunting in recent time but it was unknown if it was any special shells.

I dont know anything more about it as it was in a gunsafe from a recently deceased relative except it is probably 40+ years old, I was told it had been used for hunting in recent time but it was unknown if it was any special shells.
