Wahoo;
I really do not have enough evidence of what everyone else does to write much on it. This was just how my Dad taught me to carry a gun afield. It was not to be made ready to fire until time to fire it. To me this meant I would either cock the hammer or take it off safe as it came to shoulder. I have no problem with one hammer as the gun comes up but two is just beyond my ability. While I admire the looks of a hammer gun & have used a few over the years I for the main part gravitated to internal hammer guns. Some of them are very attractive in their own right.
