Pistol grip shotguns is all we had growing up....no fancy English guns her. Its a know fact that American makers made way less English grip guns. The answer to the question is a matter of personal preference of the eye and has nothing to do with a guns shooting quality or ability to hit targets. Today I also own both grip styles but prefer the pistol grips to hunt with. I think the grip hand is always positioned the same with less thinking about it. Remember its not how the gun looks that breaks targets, its how well it fits its owner! We buy guns because we like the look but very often can't hit the barn standing inside it! If its a object of beauty, a safe queen not to be shot only to look at it would make no difference at all. The real fact of shooting ability comes from a proper fitting gun and lots of shooting practice! Yes you can learn to shoot a ill fitting gun O.K. but some guns we just can't miss with. My best fitting, best hitting of wild birds is a pistol grip gun......that's my favorite gun for now....(-: SXS ohio
