Aside from rust damage, I think the cut-off would be in the 1920s ... when damascus (twist) steel was no longer used.

Of course, if you have a nice old gun w/ possibly unsafe steel, you may want to check into having Briley (or a similar company) put full length sub-gauge liners in it. Turn your 12 into a safe to shoot 20 or 28 ...
