The Cogswell and Harrison Avant Tout and the Winchester Model 21 are assisted opening guns, easy to open because of the ejector design. They are among the most friendly of side by side guns for the shooter. That is because they are easy to open and easy to close, much different from many other well respected designs. Most high quality guns are respected for traits other than their ease of operation for the shooter. This is mainly because most shooters are not familiar with guns other than the one or two they shoot.
