They are an answer to a question not asked. I have a rifle with one installed. I'd not have one done again.

I agree with Steelhead. I've had one, did nothing for me, won't have another.

They're primarily made for those shooters who firmly believe the Winchester Model 70 safety is the best ever--but somehow don't believe all their rifles should be Model 70's.

These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

So are elephants, but I don't want one of them either.

Did it not work? Malfunction? or is it superfluous waste of money because you prefer to carry cold?

It works, just have never figured out what the magical 3 position safety does for you. A waste of money, period.

I don't chamber a round until ready to use it. Any safety, especially one out in the open like that, can be popped off by something brushing against it. I would rather have the bolt un-cocked so it won't open and dump a round if the handle is snagged, etc.

Of course not...you just got over having a white one for eight years.

What a FUN thread.....

Neat!? You've obviously never had to clean up after one!
