    I would like to portray an older French/Canadan trader. I think he would want a good gun that would not attract to much intrest from the indians he would trade with.

    Tulle--Fusil de Chasse

    I am thinking of getting one but was told that while they are fun to shoot as a shotgun you will get smacked with the stock when shooting RB. Is this true or just the case of poor fit?
