Yeah, safeties just give one a false sense of security anyway.People do stupid things and mechanical devices fail,so just keep her pointed in a safe direction and act like like she is always loaded and wanting to go off by herself...and of course be prepared in case you would fall with her loaded,no finger on the trigger and the hand covering the trigger guard.

Drew, Here's a pic of my 20ga VHE with its 32" and 28" barrels. It too is safteyless with a 2 screw SST. The trigger has not been reliable for me; L. D. got it going good for me about 4 years ago but it has since reverted to its wayward ways. I'll see if I can get some highres closeups for you to go with Harry's.

Weren't most of the small bore guns with no safety ordered by the gentleman quail hunter in the south?? No need for a safety when one only loads a gun when walking up on a covey that is being pointed by a brace of fine dogs. But then, I have heard of guys that don't use the safety on their modern guns. Why take the time to flip it off safe when a bird is flushed....

I'd say there's somebody out there that would be happy to trade you a decent 20 gauge with a safety for yours. My guess is you've already got some PM's.

Drew,
I do not have access to the little 20 gauge as it is in the custody of my dear friends son. He said he would get it to me a month ago to look at and if and when I see it again I will take pictures inside and out. Harry |

I carry my 1911 era DHE straight grip no saftey Parker cracked open when going partridge hunting with an companion, but alone I keep it shut, just like my farther taught me ,there is only one saftey thats your brain!! I wish mine was a 20 gauge as that would make a perfect all season shotgun for partridge, good luck but please do not defame that peice of history, Dale in Canada
