It pays to have a variety of methods at hand for loading a 97. You
never know what the situation is going to be. This one is farily easy,
but takes some practice to become proficient. This technique is demonstrated
assuming that the shooter is right handed. It will work equally well for
a left handed shooter.
Dummy shells were used for this example. When practicing, make sure
that there is no live ammunition in the area.
- With the shotgun shouldered and the left hand on the pump pulling it back
into your shoulder, pull 2 shells with the right hand.
- Put the bottom shell into the action and pin the top shell against the
receiver with your first finger.
- Aim and pull the trigger with your middle finger.
- Open the action and put the second shell into the action.
- Close the action and fire.
- Repeat.
