I've had a model 30 Stevens Favorite .22 Rimfire every since they started reproducing them several years ago. I love the little gun and have killed several squirrels with it over the years. I just noticed that on what seems to be have cock, the trigger will drop the hammer. I realize it probably has a rebounding firing pin, I haven't checked to see if it will actually fire if this happens when loaded. Wondering if anyone else has one and how theirs works. Thanks, Chuck.

Same on my 17 HMR. Half cock is not a safety. I will have to test it to see if it will fire at half cock. The pin is rebounding so plenty safe with the hammer down.
