I am not a fan of 3 posistion safety. Like on or off. Why lock the bolt?


The bolt lock 'Safe' position keeps the bolt from partially opening if caught by brush, clothing or anything else, as can happen with the middle 'Safe' position.


I couldn't understand it, either, 'til I kept having to close the bolts on both my rifle, and the guide's, as we crawled through the alders in BC. I can definitely see the place for such a thing, now.

I'm just trying to figure out why "safe" locks the bolt on a late-1940's 722, but not on a 700. I hate it when products are, "de-featured".
