If my research I found several examples on Utube where there was no bear trap. I know mine is as new and has never been taken apart. I have to think it was added as they went along with the development. It is interesting when you think that underlevers with taps loading didn’t have bear traps but you take it to the side and they do? It does seem more awkward to decock?
