Title: HW97 Safety position
Post by: Skip in WV on November 28, 2012, 09:58:16 AM
Is there a way to modify the safety to a more convenient position? Or, make it easier to reach?

Have never seen any post as to how if any have been done.  I have no issue with it myself.

Seen the doohickie Dustin posted a picture of but that does not replace the position, just allows you to be able to re-engage the safety without cocking the gun again if I am correct.  Like I stated, for me the safety is no issue.  Is it that you prefer a trigger housing safety in that area?

Humm.......for my HW77 & R9 I simply push the safety with the thumb of my "trigger hand" when I'm ready to shoot. Kinda natural and "second nature" for me.

I do too, but I find it's hard to reach without moving my hand. I guess a longer thumb is needed.

Yep...........sometimes we are not blessed with long fingers for palming basketballs or throwing great curve balls!  I have medium at best sized hands and finger length.  I feel like I got shorted in that dept. but the good Lord above made us the way he made us.  That said...................I was shorted in so many ways! :o

I am grateful, for what God has given me. I have an idea though. I'll post it if it works out.
