Let me put it this way....a friend of mine bought one back in the 70's. At that time, our duck limit was on a point system. If you were careful and picked your shots, it was possible to kill 10 a day. Kenny hunted every day of it as well as the 3 more months of squirrel season. He shot several cases of shells a year. The total extent of his gun care was to wipe it down every evening with a rag sprayed with WD40. He shot the gun for 14 years before it hung up the 1st time.....I bought mine during that time because of this.
