Anyone know of model specific safety issues with lever action rifles? While at the cabin this weekend, there was a ND on the front porch that claimed 3 ceramic bowls and a cabinet. The rifle was cased immediately after the incident so all i know is that it was a 30-30 lever action. The owner was loading the rifle and claimed that there was no way that he could have tripped the trigger on accident. Could the primer get struck by part of the action on the way into the chamber? I know of issues with older models not having any safety other than putting the hammer down on a live round.
