I read somewhere that the newer Marlin lever actions have a hammerblock safety. Is this just another way of saying half cock safety or do they actually have something similar to a crossbolt or tang safety? I was thinking about buying one in .30-30 for the wife to deer hunt with but we decided that it would be best to stay away from the half cock safeties as she has never used one before and dont feel comfortable doing it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Josh
