Brad, agree with my Rem's. Piece of cake and hardly any movement required.
If my Kimber safety snapped forwards as aggressively as the OP's EW it would be a bummer... If I hunted thick stuff with it I mean. It's where that wing is located. It has to do with taking the hand out of firing position, and a bunch of excess movement, if you have to ride it forward. Neither is a good thing. Insurmountable? Of course not. But in the interest of wanting to get a rifle "right"- and I know you are as guilty of that anyone here, lol- for a guy to want to quiet a really loud safety is totally legit.
Absofugginlutely ! And I know an estate game manager in the UK who is required by contract to kill several hundred deer [roe, red, sika, and muntjac] per year who absolutely, 100% agrees with you and I on this. Perhaps he knows almost as much as Bob ?
