There is another option. You can remove the butt stock (1 bolt in the tang) and in the back of the receiver you'll see a set screw for the cross bolt safety. If you tighten it in when the safety is in the off position it'll make it so the cross bolt can't be slid across.

That's what the half cock position is for. Not sure I'd want a closed hammer with a shell in the chamber, but to each his own.
