You can still slide the safety up and down the spring too . And they stay where you put them It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

Shakeyjake trapper Joined: Jun 2022 Manitoba	Classic tip Nessy, and a good one! When I started I did this to all my older 330s, but I used steel tie wire for our HV distribution powerlines. Those suckers were stiff after that! Way overkill……lol I gave most of those older 330s away. As my collection of Belisles got bigger, those things never left the garage.
