You're trigger guard prevents you from squeezing that trigger or from anything else squeezing that trigger whether it's a branch or a bush or anything that's in the way. Make sure that your safety is always on. But holding the shotgun. Shotgun is a pretty natural feeling gun. While walking with it, having it strapped is a great thing to do because if you're able just to throw this over your shoulder, gives you two free hands. Putting it over your back if you're going on a long journey, makes you feel you don't even know it's there.

When you're sizing your shotgun up, putting your hand on the pump action and actually bringing it up to your shoulder will tell you if it's a good fit or not."
