Message-ID: <35779@mimsy.umd.edu> Date: 18 Jun 91 18:45:55 GMT Sender: magnum@mimsy.umd.edu Organization: Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY Lines: 16 Approved: gun-control@cs.umd.edu I just came back from the marine supply store. While there, I couldn't help taking a good look at the flare gun stuff. The thought never occured to me before, and I took a good long look at the packages for a good clear warning, but.... What would be the complications of using a regular shotgun with flare loads. I'm especially thinking of problems with different chokes being used. I'm also wondering about the corossiveness of the load to a good gun. Inquiring minds need to know. al -- Al.
