A question of..Safety..

[Randy Roberts]

I get your point which is an interesting one. You would think the process of milling the safety slot would simply be omitted vs completed and then filled in. I blew the pics up on paint to 4000 pixels and I can see a line on the VH which could "possibly" be a filled in slot, possibly to my eyes. Concerning the CHE I am just not seeing it. What am I missing ? Did you use some other method on paint possibly that would make it clearer to my eyes ?

Randy. The VH is filled in.

I have observed a couple frames that had no slot. But the cast majority of safety-delete guns have filled-in slots.

Paint has very limited editing options - that's really not its function

and JPGs generally do not have the detail to allow much sharpening or editing -

if you want to try to clean up an image there are free photo editors such as GIMP or PhotoScape X that will allow you to get as much as possible from a JPG - but again - what can be done without the base detail is limited and they take a while to learn

The red arrow is pointing at the right front corner of the slot.

Below the tip of the arrow one can see the whole straight front edge of the slot.

On Remingtons they used a different trigger spring and the head of the stock was solid on the no safety guns. I've never seen the inside of a righteous Fox or Parker Bros. no safety gun, so would like to hear from some gunsmiths/stockers on what they have observed on the inside.

Good eye Dave, now I see it clearly.
