As Dan said..but the springs may be affected marginally after many years. The spring on a 1911 is after all a leaf type of spring. Shotguns should not really have the triggers pulled Most of them have coil springs and certain shotguns when pulled on an empty chamber may peen the bolt face and break firing pins..one example is a M-12 Winchester. 1100s and their family of shotguns have springs in the bolts and they are shorter than the bolt.
