Default Extended Hammer on Omega

Has anyone tried to put one of those extended hammer devices on an Omega? I recently purchased an Omega and in the heat of the moment, I can see where it might get kind of difficult to find/pull back the hammer on a gun which has a scope mounted on it when you've got your eyes on the game.


Thanks,
Tony

Per T/C: This will void your warranty if you add on an adapter or extension to the hammer.
Point is, this places more angled pressure on the hammer when cocking and over time can create unusual wear.
There are some clamp on gadgets available, but I would not recommend them.

After some getting used to the Omega, you may find it a non-issue. I did.

Seeings how I only have one shot with an ML, I've yet to have so much of a heated moment that I could not set the hammer or lock.

It's been awhile since I looked at an Omega but I don't believe the rifle would function with a hammer extension installed.
