[QUOTE="mcdil, post: 2556914, member: 112571"] What is different now? That was my only beef with it as well and why I never bought one either. It was like reverse cocking a fairly heavy hammer. You have no real leverage doing it in reverse, and it would be really slow trying to pull up for a quick shot. The thumb hole stock only made the situation worse, but I was not comfortable with either composite stock style. If you tried to cock it using a traditional tang safety move to fire, it was not possible, at least for me. Everything else I really liked. [/QUOTE]
