I prefer sidelock shotguns, but I like boxlock guns too. I do think the top tang safeties are often times more ergonomically placed on sidelocks as compared to boxlocks, but that is not always the case, at least thats what Ive noticed re English. It seems like sidelock safeties are closer to the breech than some of the boxlock English SxS guns Ive handled. Round bodies, like the Dickson are real sweet and arent really classified as boxlock or sidelock guns since they are trigger plate guns.

Socialism is almost the worst.
