I think you are supposed to carry that gun with the hammers cocked and locked, in the same way you would carry a sidelock gun with concealed hammers.




As they are marketing it as the Hambrusch "safety" Sidelock system I am guessing they mean it to be cocked only when about to shoot. Otherwise the "safety" issue is no different to any other cocked double.

As Curl says, interesting to look at, but if a double has hammers, it is VERY traditional, and I think the normal hammers would have so much more appeal for the guys wanting a double with hammers.

I'm guessing they defintitely don't re-cock on opening either, so slower reloading in a hurry.
