Sorry for the confusion Brian, and not to belabor a trivial issue but what you describe is precisely how my Fox 20 ga Sterly operates. My Parker however, and it sounds like a few others if the responses in this thread are any indication, will allow for the barrels to open without the lever being fully pushed to the locking position. In which case the lever can return to the closed position and not allow the barrels to close unless the lever is pushed over to the locked position. At that point, the lever will snap back to the closed position normally upon closing the barrels.
