To go along with post about gun fitting, I thought I would add this quick video about drop on a double-barrel shotgun. If you’ve ever wondered why drop matters and how to measure it, check it out. Very helpful.

Nice. Fit is very important, of course. I like this 1956 English video – it is about making best guns in general, but has some points about fit as well.

Thanks for sharing. That’s a great video. I love the stern looks on everyone’s face. Very serious work here, sir!
Ebenezer Hands did work for Wilkes and Watson. I’ll look into this some more to see where that video may have been made.
