I take deer hunting serious. If you just want to flip it off, go ahead. My 700 I press on it, to quite it. With the mauser safety on the Montana, I can see how you a would want to grip it, and ease it off.
This is the first time in my life that I realized that Model 70 Winchesters and Kimber rifles apparently have a "mauser safety". Who woulda' thunk it?
Zerk, you are a true genius assembly line spewing knowledge on everything involving rifles and golf. What's next?
