Thread: Sako 75 halfcock

Everyone is getting hung up on the safety vs half bolt argument... Thats not what the post is about. If you can have both at the same time and double the level of security isn't that a good thing? Thats what the post is asking.. of which the answer has already been mentioned in that I am pretty sure the safety can be applied on a Sako 75 with the bolt in the half open position. You achieve the same thing as the tikka mod, only difference being the Sako 75 can have the bolt closed when the safety is applied where as the tikka is locked due to the hole drilled in the bolt to enable the safety to engage. (I may be slightly wrong here but that's how I remember it when I had my Sako 75).
