Just curious.

Ted,
I only cock 1 hammer if a bird flushes wild (which I rarely shoot), if I need a second shot, I lower the gun and cock the second hammer. I cannot cock both hammers consitently and safely at the same time while mounting the gun, some guys can do it no problem, I'm not comfortable doing it. If one of the setters is on point and I'm walking in to flush a bird, I will cock both hammers individualy as I'm walking in for the flush. It works for me, shot a nice sharptail doing just that earlier today. As the thumb-opener goes...its almost automatic, I dont even think about it, its very easy to manipulate and doesnt take much time to do, not to mention it's elegant as all get out!
