FeedBalancing a Double Gun, Part I
By Steven Dodd Hughes
As a shooter, I have been intrigued with shotgun balance for a long time-long before I knew why one gun could feel like I could hit with it, whereas another could feel like an oak post. Be it a rifle, a shotgun or even a handgun, appropriate balance is an important part of why some guns simply can be shot better than others. As a custom gunmaker, I consider proper balance and handling some of the necessary requirements of a high-quality firearm (the others being that the gun is fully functional and places shots correctly, is pleasing to the eye and correctly proportioned, and has an equally high degree of detailing from butt to muzzle).
