@steve white - YES YES I “could have” but did NOT….a painful lesson because that was the only Bear I saw on a 6 day hunt. The following year, I went back to the same Outfitter, had a bear come in on the first evening “cocked hammer WHILE holding trigger in”etc.. and shot my Bear.Hankbuck, could you not have pulled the trigger, pulled the hammer back while still holding the trigger in, then let the trigger out, thus silently cocking the rifle?
