Not without photos.
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

If you have the pics on your laptop it is pretty easy to post them. Scroll down from where you type a post, and click the attachments button, then click "add files", find the picture you want to post and click the open button you will see. This will put it into your thread.

I am thinking something is worn out or dirty and sticking on your safety. Pics will help us perhaps diagnose the issue.

I have a BRNO #1 that fires when the safety is disengaged. I just don't chamber a round until I am ready to fire.

Are you trying the safety when the rifles cocked? Some bolts won't go to safe unless cocked.
