RM;
Don't really want to get in the middle here, but are you saying anytime one loads a double, both shells "Should" be fired before removing & one should "Never" extract an unfired round?
I was under the impression this was why ejectors are made "Selective", other wise could just always eject both hulls & the mechanism could be much simplified.
There are many situations in the field where it becomes desirable to unload a gun without firing it & I personally have always done so without concern.
I do agree though, that for an ejector snap caps should be light if they are to be ejected, but then that would normally re-cock the gun so nothing would be gained.
I haven't really given this a lot of thought as only have a couple of guns on which I cannot just let the hammers down on closing the gun.
