[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1925428, member: 54178"] OK, ONE LAST TIME! 1.)->ALL Ruger American bolt guns have NO locking bolt when on safe. PERIOD. 2.)-> I only carry a round in the chamber and rifle on safe when hunting ALONE. (KernL) No, I do not need a "safety refresher", RUGER needs one! I sold the RAP and bought a (yes, much more expensive) Browning X-Bolt Pro which DOES have a [I]bolt lock[/I] when on SAFE. If I want to UNload while on SAFE all I have to do is depress a small square button at the root of the bolt handle, lift the handle and extract the cartridge WHILE ON SAFE. So - Ruger could make some changes to have a [I]locked bolt while on safe [/I]but they chose not to. DUMB. END OF RANT Eric B. [/QUOTE]
