jumbohead safety & tactical bolt handles

jumbohead safety on 11-87:

I installed it Jumbo head on the left side--press to "safe", but it looks like it could be installed either way? What would most people deem correct?

I also installed a tactical bolt handle (Choate) on my 11-87. I'm a little concerned about how easily this one is removed compared to the stock part. Did I just get a loose one? Are these not all they could be? It would be a BAD day to have it rip out when I needed it most!

I put the Jumbo on the right side. Press to take off safe. I think that is the original intent.
