About 99% of hunters do not know whether their safety blocks the trigger or has an intercepting safety. It is of no consequence. The important thing, the only thing, is that the hunter understand the safety, automatic or non automatic, that is part of his gun. If someone likes an automatic safety, that is fine. As someone who occasionally shoots for money, I find an automatic safety a distraction and possibly a trail of tears. At a box bird shoot, a failure to fire, for any reason, is a lost bird. The same goes for an expensive hunt with few chances to score a kill. I use both types of safety, but prefer the non automatic.
