Non-automatic safety conversion
I'm looking at a Parker that has a non-automatic safety. It's a nice gun, but not in serious collector condition -- it's already some other things done to it. I'm sure I could manage with the safety, but I really like auto safeties, because, well, I'm old and that's what I'm used to. I don't shoot clays, only wild birds. The gun is from the first decade of the 20th Century if that makes a difference.
My questions: How difficult is it to convert the Parker non-automatic safety to one that is automatic? Does anyone have experience with this? Do you have a gunsmith to recommend for the work?
