I just checked out a nice .45-70 octagonal barreled low wall (or high maybe) at cabelas... I'm ignorant how the safety works on these... Is there one? I couldn't get the hammer to contact the firing pin. I wasn't dry firing it but I was opening, closing the action, and holding the hammer as I held the trigger back. The hammer stopped about 1/8" away from the firing pin. Pushing the hammer forward did nothing. I couldn't find a safety... what gives? Is this rifle broken or am I dumber than I thought?
