    Haha yep agreed...terminology has just stuck around I suppose. On my Lee Enfield I see half cock as: bolt fully closed, hammer in the 'half cocked' position. If you want to fire you have to manually pull back the hammer. I suppose because the safety is so agricultural on a Lee Enfield due to its original purpose the half cock was popular at the height of Lee Enfield hunting?
