I have a question on appropriate pump shotgun technique- how do you pull the gun into your shoulder pocket?
On non-pump guns I pull with both hands.
With a pump gun though the non-trigger hand is also the shucking hand- if I'm pulling my 870 in with that hand and fire then the action opens abruptly as soon as I let off the trigger. Is this what I want? Or should my shuck hand merely steady the forend and all rearward pull come from the trigger hand?
I'm new to this weapon but not to the idea of avoiding the development of bad habits
Thank you,
Robert
