    Alright, without the head beating against the wall symbol, let me know if I am correct in my paraphrasing:
    the appropriate way to decock with a live round in the chamber is to lift the action?
    The...

    Was there a high rate of accidental discharge from these rifles when you mix in rain, mud, snow and just plain numbness from cold? I suspect that they could slip rather easily.

  11. Were any other firearms designed to accept LE magazines?
