I have a hammer duck gun with a somewhat redundant manual safety. Sometimes I have the hammers back while in the blind and the safety on. It still scares the fool out of me to see it leaned up on the front of the blind with hammers back. If others comment on it, I point out that the 'hammer' is back and the safety on with their pump or automatic; just like my gun but they can't see their hammer because it is inside. I usually end up shooting the gun with safety off and cock the hammers as I pull up to shoot...Geo
