A shotgun should be easy to manipulate, otherwise it will affect your shooting.

Is it possible to have my gun altered so that it is easier to close, or to remove the self-opening mechanism?
I own a Henry Atkin sidelock ejector, No.2050, which I assume was made in the early part of the past century. The gun is in excellent condition and I use it regularly. It is, of course, a self-opener with a particularly strong opening mechanism. With increasing age and a couple of minor heart attacks, I now find the gun difficult to close, especially when I am in a hurry.
