Original Note:
The rifle is in what's called "Condition 3," or "Israeli Carry." While not originating in Israel, theories abound as to why IDF practice this condition to this day. https://www.wearethemighty.com/tactical/israeli-carry-condition/ https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/truth-israeli-carry/amp/ https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/truth-israeli-carry/ The device, called "Mek-Porek," can be discharged to facilitate firing of the weapon if needed. https://www.israelhayom.co.il/article/154215
