The Howa 1500 bolt-action rifles have a three-position safety and a red-dot safety indicator, both near the base of the bolt arm. The bolt is a two-lug design made of forged steel with an integrated bolt arm. The receiver is also forged steel and the various barrel choices are hammer forged.The gun’s two-stage curved Howa Activated Controlled Trigger. This HACT trigger has crisp, clean, breaks. The hinged floorplate in front of the trigger guard makes accessing unfired cartridges easy. At back the gun has a thick, but gently curved, recoil pad to mitigate felt recoil.
