I had one of those that had been rechambered to 6.5x257 roberts. Shot like a dream but i hated that safety with a passion. another friend of mine still uses one as his only deer rifle. Hes killed many a deer with the old thing ,and I dont remember him having to shoot one twice. He simply carries his with the magazine loaded only and chambers a round when he spots a deer. I think (its been many years since i saw a training manual on one of these) that this is the way the japanese troops were trained to carry them. And the knob on back was used more as a aid in feild stripping the bolt than as a safety. Sort of like the center position on a mauser was. Like i say I could be wrong. its been a long time. I always wondered why ,considering the strenght of these actions , no one ever made a side safety and trigger for one. I think a lot of the stygma on these, were caused by the very last so called home defense guns ,that were simply made of cast iron. The one I had was an EXTREMLY well made rifle,far better in fit and finish than most of the other military rifles of the day.
