Depending on how you want to sight the fowling gun and how comfortable you are with the cheek weld, bending the barrel is an option to give a shooter the sight plane similar to rifle sights.  Note that for smooth rifles the presence of a rear sight raises the eye on the stock.  None the less, bending of the barrel is an option.  There have been many discussions on how to bend the barrel to adjust the point of impact to fit how the user is shooting the gun. 


When shooting the fowling gun for its intended purpose, I prefer to have my eye raised to give more of a view of the intended target for shooting at birds to raise the shot pattern.
