being that your savage/stevens shotgun was made between 1933-1945,I would have a gunsmith check your shotgun to make sure it is safe to use and at that time question him on use of steel shot through your shotgun.

Yes, you can shoot slugs through a Stevens 12 gauge model 67 E shotgun. However, it is important to ensure that the shotgun is chambered for 12 gauge ammunition and that the barrel is designed to handle the pressure generated by firing slugs. Using the correct type of slug ammunition, such as rifled slugs or sabot slugs, can help optimize accuracy and performance. Additionally, it is recommended to check the manufacturer's guidelines and consult with a firearms expert for further advice on safely shooting slugs through your specific shotgun model.
Yes, you can shoot steel shot through a Stevens Model 77H shotgun, but it's essential to ensure that the shotgun is in good condition and that the choke is appropriate for steel shot. Older shotguns may have fixed chokes that could be more susceptible to damage from steel shot, so it's prudent to check the manufacturer's recommendations and consider using a more open choke. Always consult your owner's manual and consider the potential risks before using steel shot.
Riverside was manufactured by Stevens, so if you can identify the equivalent Stevens model, you should be able to find hammers at http://www.e-gunparts.com/ Or if you still have one hammer (or a broken one) you can take it to a local gunshow and dig through bins of miscellaneous parts looking for a match.
