I have a scene where the MC borrows a Tranter-Adams from a whorehouse madame, minutes before getting into a gunfight. He's completely unfamiliar with the action, especially the dual triggers. Never having shot one of these guns before, I can relate. Which is unfortunate, since this puts me firmly into the territory of writing what I DON'T know.
His inexperience with the gun leads to some far reaching consequences. Since it's such a key part of the story, I'd like to get the trivia right.
I've read up on the Tranter, but reading and shooting are very different things.
Hoping someone out there's shot one or something similar, and can share the details of their experience.
