As it becomes

As it becomes necessary, when approaching wild birds, to be well concealed m your punt, you are obliged to fire these guns, lying down as close as possible on your chest. For which some have a wedge to support the breast. If you put your cheek to the stock, your shoulder bone in contact with the but, or your second MBT Shoes finger behind the trigger, you run a risk of having them severely jarred; but, if you ma¬nage the gun properly, the sensation, with a light charge, is no more than that of firing powder from a small gun; and the report, to the shooter, seems a mere nothing. To fire a stan¬chion gun, put your left hand over the but, and regulate it to the line of aim, while your cheek gently grazes the back jimmy choo shoes of the hand. Put all the fingers of your right hand before the trigger, keep¬ing the thumb out qf the way; and be careful not to let your knees come in contact with the timbers of the boat. By observing well these directions, a child might fire this gun with as much safety as the smallest fowling piece.
In firing a punt-gun (without any stanchion) from the shoulder * you must lean hard against the upper part of the padded but; and have the gun as top heavy as you can possibly overbear, by which means the friction of the stock against the " gunning-bench " and the check of your shoulder, prevents the gun from running too far under your arm. Never attempt to shoot a barrel so short as six feet in this way, as it might fly up and hurt you. Always try these guns with a quarter of a charge first; and in¬crease the loading with, an ounce of shot each round. By this means you avoid the risk of a recoil, as you then gradually ascertain how much ammunition can be fired with perfect ease to the shoulder.
If you are so fortunate as to get a Une MBT of birds, jimmy choo shoot rather beyond the first of them, which will then be taken by the lower shot. You may thus (with mould shot) sweep the water from one to tzvo jimmy choo uggs hundred yards, and possibly MBT Shoes Clearance kill some of them all the way, from one of these distances to the other.
