let marlin explain it

Hi all, new to the forum with a couple questions. I've just picked up a new 336, going through the manual I am struggling to understand something. Page 8 indicates "Never attempt to pull the trigger when the safety mechanism is activated in the safe position".

Page 22 indicates: "with the safety mechanism engaged, cycle the action and fully close the lever by rotating it rearward. Pull the trigger fully rearward and then remove your finger from the trigger. The hammer should release".

Dry fire or no? Pull trigger with safety engaged or no? Thanks in advance.

You can ask the factory. It maybe something that needs to be redefined in the manual. It does not make sense to me either.

I dont dryfire against the safety, but i do dryfire with the safety off.
