welshwarrior Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Basically the guns are step to shoot high as its always a going away bird. This means they can see it during its whole flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 (edited) The head up/high rib is to increase visibility and speed up target acquisition. Edited August 26, 2013 by Rupert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
