There are many view points, mine is that I do not want any one walking behind me with a loaded gun that needs two safeties to be safe. I have shot and hunted all my life and i am pushing 75 years old and the only accident that has happened was from a hammerless gun that the sear slipped on when the action was closed, since it was pointed in a safe direction the only result was the gun being junked. i just can not imagine fooling around with two safeties with an alert buck standing 15 yards in front of me. If you do not use it what good is it?
