On some skeet shots I can barely even see both birds much less cock hammers for each clay. I like to cock the hammers with the gun open then close it when ready to call for the birds/clays. I've not shot a light and/or small framed hammer gun though. Mine are both pretty stout guns. A small frame hammer gun is one of my dream guns. I would like for every hammer gun to be such that it could be opened with the hammers cocked. It's much safer I think.

Dean: please locate the nearest Star Trek replicator and clone your gun for me... You can beam it to my home address when it's ready....

Austin may in fact cock both of his hammers at the same time on the rise. However, chances are he uses the less strenuous, more reliable, and safer method of cocking the left, then the right, just finishing the cocking of the right barrel as the trigger is pulled. It doesn't matter which trigger you decide to pull first, but as you are finishing the cocking of the right barrel, your hand is in the shooting position.

OK Dean,
Now you've got me drooling! What gauge is your little hammer gun? Please tell me more about it. Paul |

Paul, it's a sixteen on the 0-frame with lightening cuts. It has 28" barrels choked open and mod and it weighs 6 lbs., 7 oz. LOP is 14 1/4" with DAC of 2 1/4" and DAH of 3". It balances about 1/4" foreward of the hinge pin and is very lively but not at all whippy.
Chuck Bishop shot it at one of the stations at Addieville on Saturday and if memory serves, he cleaned the station... or maybe dropped one. Thanks for the compliment. Dean |

Chuck Bishop missed one? Do you have a cell phone video?
