Bill..I wish I could determine if the gun was made without a safety. The book lists 3 identical guns..consecutive serials...all with ejectors.. I bought this in California..If it had been a 12..I would have passed. In any case..it's a bit scarce, and I didn't have a 32" VH..I'm sure that a safety will be available if I go that route..Jerry..

If a safety is all that keeps someone from shooting themselves, that person shouldn't have had a gun in the first place. |

I probably will have some cosmetics done. I've talked to Mr. Gorman about doing the barrels..and I'll do the wood. Which brings us to a suitable case color artisan...????..I'm on the fence about the safety...I'll probably never run across a consecutive # gun to see if either of those had safeties...

Jerry ,are you planning on ordering a letter , That may tell you about the safety ! That is where I would start if it were me ! A 32" 16 will be a dandy , Nice Find !

It certainly appears that this gun was made with a safety and that the safety was removed from the gun aftermarket. No safety guns from Meriden wouldn't have the word SAFE engraved on the tang and the plug filling the slot would be almost invisible.

The letter arrived before the gun ! It has no additional info..Just the specs..It is probably best to have the safety installed..It's a keeper..one of 216..

Look to see if the stock has the cut out where a safety parts would go. If it had no safety the stock wouldnt have a hole for safety parts.
