I never shot a Model 12 very well although I loved that gun. Its where the safety is placed in front to the trigger guard. I had to choke up on the wrist so my finger could reach and push the safety with enough force but this led to the stock bumping up into my underarm when I went to shoulder it.

But those two pumps were so buttery smooth that sometimes I couldn't remember if I chucked another round in the chamber after a shot so I had to check.

I eventually sold both of them.
