They can fix the safety at the same time, but you might try running a lot of Rem Action cleaner through it first to see if that frees it. It was frozen in place.
--Brad is a personal friend, hunting partner at FruitRidge Farms, and is a master gunsmith. I have seen some of his work on double gun restoration- A plus all the way. Will you try to replace the set of barrels that was cut down to 20"?
