So the decocker is actually a selector for the rifle barrel of right shotgun barrel?



The cocking/decocking slide on the top tang cocks the rifle barrel lock and disconnects the front trigger from the right hand shot barrel lock.

The decocker decocks a shotgun barrel but cocks the rifle barrel.



No, it merely cocks the rifle barrel lock, connects the front trigger to the rifle lock and disconnects the trigger from the cocked right shot barrel lock.

The Greener safety is the only actual safety?



The Greener safety blocks the two cocked shot barrel locks only. The uncocked, slide back, rifle lock needs no further safety. The cocking slide is the safety for the rifle barrel.
Quote:

And the little button is required to reset the right shotgun barrel and front trigger?



Yes, it reconnects the front trigger to the right shotgun lock. Both shotgun locks are cocked all the time on opening of the drilling, just the rifle lock remains uncocked until the slide is pushed forward.

The little button would be a bit annoying. I would forget it too often.



That’s why Krieghoff soon redesigned the lockwork to eliminate the little reset button.
