I think you got the better end of that deal. I've
seen those adapters in action.
I heard about the result
Sometimes my purpose in life is to serve as a horrible warning to others, yep
I know what you mean. If I ever thought about getting a visible tattoo it would warn others to avoid following my example! "Warning! On going test do not attempt to duplicate!"
If I can make it to another Elm Fork shoot you can test your skill with a real .410
You probably shot better with the adapters than I do shoot with a 12ga.

Adapters work fine if they're long enough - but these were l'il short things which did nothing to hold any semblance of a shot-column together and I could see the resulting pellet-strikes clustered halfway down my bore. Absolutely horrific.
Definitely mechanical failure!! I've seen you shoot
