[QUOTE="gohring3006, post: 1025218, member: 78762"] Maybe its just the logger way of thinking but I believe carrying a loaded rifle is just a unnecessary risk. Anything mechanical will fail at some point. And it always seems to happen all of a sudden without notice, it could be fine the day before and boom it no longer works.Then add the human element. I just checked one of my rifles safety with a trigger pull scale. It has a safety like a Remington 700. (TC Venture) it takes about 8 lbs to click to fire and it has a 3 lbs trigger. That's not a lot of resistance to hold back something that out puts 3000 foot pounds of muzzle energy.... [/QUOTE]
