I've heard of some of the Navy Arms shotguns double firing even when only one barrel had a cap on a nipple. Have any of you owned a Navy Arms double-barrel shotgun that worked properly over a period of several years? I am considering buying one that is old-stock LNIB. It is beautiful to look at but I want it to be safe as well. Thanks for any recommendations or advice.

  Had one, loved it, never had any problems. except that it ended up traded off. If you don't buy it, let me know where it is please.

  unless there was a hole rusted between the barrells I would find it highly unlikely to chain fire, not that it couldn't happen, I just find it hard to see a spark jumping from one barrell to the other. I could see the trigger being out of sync and maybe causing both hammers to fall and thus causing both barrells to fire more plausable.
