To aim shotgun, lift the weapon with both hands, the right clasping the stock just below the guard, the left supporting the barrels. Look with both eyes steadily at the object to be shot at, and at the same time bring the mid rib of the barrels straight under the line of vision of the right eye. Pull the trigger instantly.
 Carry your gun on your shoulder with the muzzle elevated and the hammers down, save when you are expecting game to rise, then you may hold it at ready" '" which is as follows: Cock both barrels. grasp the stock with the right hand, as iA firing, and sustain the barrels at an up ward angle in the left hand, just in front of and across the breast, the breech heel a little below the right elbow.
