Hi everyone, I want to ask you guys about something.
Is the Maverick 88 capable of shooting Slugs (Like this ones http://www.remington.com/~/media/Ima...=570&bc=ffffff ) or will I wear out the barrel? The same question with Magnum Cartridges.

Someone told me that it is not recomendable to use Slugs and Magnum Cartridges on Maverick 88 shotguns, or else I will wear out the barrel or even brake some parts inside the shotgun, because he said it is not designed for heavy loads.

I want to read your opinions and experiences about it.
