A few years ago at a NSTRA trial, I was using my 1884 lifter and attracted some attention, especially from an eastern European gentleman who told me of a European hammer gun that was equipped with a safety. Anyone seen one of those? At a trial, of course, carrying the gun with the hammers down (or even unloaded) is no problem as you don't shoot till the dog has established his find and point and you flush the bird.
