My concern is how is the gun unloaded? I know that you can shoot it but is there another safe way?
If you are at the Taber Pheasant Festival, I'll try to look you up, our dog just got a UT prize one and she is raring to go.

That gun is actually lighter than a normal O/U shotgun, very nice handling gun in fact.
if you look back about five posts, you will find the part about unloading a misfire, you use the same method for a charged gun.
Be aware, that a muzzle loader is not demed "loaded" until it is primed with either flash powder or percussion cap.
however, one must be carful not to be smoking around the stuff!
