Why must you place the safety on Fire to close the bolt and load the gun?
Safeties are supposed to prevent accidental manipulation of the fire control system. Locking the action seems prudent.
If you want a safety to protect you from your own actions ... I suggest more training or another hobby.

Like...dropping a gun while loading it and having the trigger snag something? It's a legitimate question, what's with the holier-than-thou bullshite? Would you disagree that being able to load the gun with the safety on is not in fact safer?

Listen Nancy, some of us were taught to NEVER put a gun in the fire position unless you are ready to pull the trigger and shoot something. Having to put a gun on fire to rack a live round into the chamber goes against everything my daddy taught me.
So take that shite back to the OT.
