rgp,

The advantage of this kind of underlever, in my opinion, is speed. You just hit the underlever with your trigger hand after firing the second shot, and the rifle is open with cases ejected as you bring it down from your shoulder. As you are reaching for your ammo belt for 2 more rounds, the guy with a top lever is just breaking his gun open. In today's DG hunting, the difference in speed would probably not be an issue 99%+ of the time, but the underlever does have an edge.
