He's going to replace a few worn parts to make the 'safe' very safe and he'll eliminate the 3 position feature and make the safety stricky 2 position. This will make it much safer to shoot, especially downstream when my grand kids inherit this gun and may not have a clue about the 3 position feature (which was meant for competitive shooting mainly) and in keeping with most shotgun safetys today. Less confusing.

I've never thought about someone down the line shooting themselves or someone else because of that 3 position safety, but you make a valid point to consider. I personally prefer an automatic safety for that very reason, but I've read about other people having their automatic safeties disabled, which just makes me cringe. Seems like if I'd want to retain my auto safety then why not also disable the bottom position on my 3 position safeties.
