The GPR hammer has two positions: the first position is presumably the safety position which allows the hammer to be cocked a part of the way but the hammer does not drop when you pull the trigger. Then there is the fully cocked position that allows you to fire.
The problem I ran into while hunting this year was that when the hammer is in the safety position there is not enough room to slide the capper under it to load a cap, so I was constantly lifting the hammer while trying to load the cap. It seemed that much of the time I had to get tot he fully cocked position in order to get the cap loaded, and then I would have to carefull drop the hammer all the way back down on the cap in order to reset it to the safe position. This whole process seemed awkward and felt accident prone.
Is this your experience? Can I adjust the safety position?
