Frank, I have owned many guns older than that and shot them with no ill effects. I had a Colt Army Special .41 LC made 1906, Winchester #1897 12 gauge pump made in 1918, Winchester #1906 .35 WSL made in 1906, about three Remington #12 .22 pump rifles made before 1920, and two 1903 Colt .32 a.c.p. pistols made before 1915. OLD still works. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

When you do shoot it, sit down at a bench and rest the gun on a few sandbags (pantlegs-cut off and fill with sand) and shoot it for accuracy, post the target for us to admire.
