I have to make sure the the drawer is not pressed all the way to the rear or all the way forward to where the strike bezel in the upper part is not putting lateral pressure on the bolt or else the simplex lock will not operate. When the bolt is clear or at least not under pressure, it operates perfectly.
Aside from the stablizing straps necessary to keep it from tipping when fully open and loaded, I chained mine to the frame too.
My main driver for getting this thing was competition related, I shoot the cowboy sports, NCOWS and SASS, it has been great for hauling all that stuff around. I wish I had owned one back in the days when I was a 3-gunner.
