Not to mention awkward. How would you fight through all that brush and jagger bushes with your gun open and the shells half ways falling out?

And sweeping both hammers back with your thumb? What happens in the middle of a flush and your thumb slips slightly, sweat or whatever, and one hammer doesn't go all the way back to the full cock notch and starts heading back in the opposite direction?

Behind a dog fine but no way without a dog. Just to many things could go wrong.
