Is it truth or is it crap?

Catfish,

As I said above, When in doubt, FOLLOW the gun manufacturer's instructions.

The original question was, "Can one fire a .45 Colt in a .410 shotgun?"

I ask all; What is to be gained by this exercise? If it were possible and safe, we have a fellow shooting a .45 Colt cartridge in a .410. Since darn few .410s have sights, why would one want to shoot a .45 pistol cartridge out of a shotgun lacking sights? A guy may hit my barn from 25 yards, but not much else. LOL.
