The only reason I ever wanted an inline was for the safety features, specifically, the safety. On a Hawkins the only safety is half ****. And I always hunt with the hammer fully ****ed. That combined with the fact that the set screw is completely removed, and I hunt with the set trigger allready pulled makes for a dangerous situation. The only inline I own that doesn't have a safety is the Wolf. The other two have a regular safety. My Brolin Arms plunger style inline has a thumb style safety and my Traditions has the best, a cross block trigger safety.
