There is no safety behind the lever opener. This is the first hammer gun I have ever considered buying. So, I am feeling kind of silly/stupid now that I think of it. Do hammer guns generally have a safety like the hammerless doubles or are the uncocked hammers the safety?
Tom,
Just to be safe you should still carry the gun with barrels broken. When you first start using a hammer gun, there is tendency to cock both hammers as you bring the gun up to your shoulder, which is fine. The problem is that if you only fire 1 barrel, you can forget that you have to decock the second hammer. Once you get used to that, they are pleasure to shoot.
I have come to prefer hammer guns. This one sounds like a gem. For the price, you can not go wrong.
