Does the bottom lever on a Ruger No. 1 jab you in the back when you carry the rifle with a sling?

Might sound like a weird quesion, but I'm thinking about buying a No. 1 and I saw where someone on another hunting website posted that his No. 1 lever was getting hung on brush and pulled partially open and hit him in his back when carried on a sling.

Any insight would be appreciated
