I have a Charles Daly Superior grade 20ga made by Miroku. I have had it for 40 years. When I store the gun both barrels are fired on snap caps, stored with springs in the relaxed position. The gun does not cock with the forend off. In that situation I have to push the lever to the right to get the barrels back on. To the best of my knowledge it as always worked this way. They are great guns.
