History sure is great- I saw the Holland & Holland videos with a proper British instructor- Ken something- knickers, vest, Peel shoes- the whole magilla- he shot a sidelock and then on SC an American Ruger O/U- and he always had the muzzles pointed down and lifted the up the buttstock/receiver group to close either shotgun. The Brits may drink their beer warm, are lacking a Delta Dental plan in their Socialized Medicare and call their erasers Rubbers- but they developed and practice excellent gunning manners-!!
