The guns I noted cannot be slam-fired. One must consciously pull the trigger after the gun has gone into battery. It's all about timing.

The M12 and 1897's are much more difficult to hit with when 'slam firing' - of course, at 10 feet, the accuracy is all that is needed.

One does have to slow down a bit when shooting buckshot and slugs due to increased recoil over trap loads.

Modern trap loads with 1oz and 7/8oz. are a joke, but break birds. In the video, John was using real trap loads, 1 1/8oz and 3 drams - the only trap load 20 years ago, I believe.

John Satterwhite in the video above, Died at age 70. RIP.
