Like Austin, I too carry hammers down. I started shooting a hammer gun while in Italy in 1972. I shot alot of skeet 400 to 500 shells a week. With a down gun by Internationa Rules stock tuching the hip and butt rearward of my elbow I would cock the right hammer on the way to my shoulder for the first clay and drop the gun down to cock the left hammer for the second shot. Granted I was not that good at it, but typical score was around 96 out of 100.
Alot of the people I shoot sporting clays with have their safety off all the time. I suspect that if they practice shooting that way their safetys are off when afield. Same as having hammers cocked you just can't tell.
