So I recently inherited some of my grandfather's firearms after he passed away. A JC Higgins 12 Gauge, Remington Nylon 66, and a Stevens Model 311 in .410. I was thinking of using the model 311 as a home defense shotgun but only if I can shoot slugs out of it. I bought 2 boxes of Winchest 3" magnum Hollow Point slugs but my dad said he was not sure if it can only shoot buck/bird shot or only a slug out of one side of the barrel. Anyone know about these Stevens Model 311's? They are really nice firearms from what I can tell. And I've always wanted my own side by side in my collection.
