Craig I don't know if that's the best thing to do. My Lifter 8526 has the square corner and is not cracked. Shooting it with Black Powder loads it may crack or it may not. It was not real expensive. For a shooter may be better to take the risk saving up front.
Way I see it if you avoid one that's cracked conditon and price are major factors not what could happen. I have another Parker hammer gun that was several times the lifters price, it's a radius corner.
