That's why all my Lefevers have the auto-safety locked off. For those that rely on auto-safeties to keep your gun "safe" while hunting, they are a mechanical device. All mechanical devices can fail. I prefer to have that tactile knowledge that if I'm in the field, I engaged the safety. I have a couple of Parkers that I didn't take apart to disassemble the safety rod. Whenever I shoot clays with them they do mess me up on the first few stations. I will be like Breck and those push rods will be tossed into a drawer eventually.
