The stock Mauser has a 3 position safety: OFF, On-bolt unlocked, On- bolt locked. When a low profile safety is installed, it is always a 2 position safety due to the limited swing available with the scope. I really like being able to open the bolt with the safety on. I don't like taking the safety off to do anything but fire.
The question becomes who makes a low profile safety that allows the bolt to open with the safety engaged?
Am I nuts to consider opening the bolt with the safety engaged as a desireable feature?
