Thanks to all for convincing me that there was a slot there. Someone refinished the stock and varnished over the slots; dug them out and with a thin bit took the rod out after the ferrule was removed. I like Fox's simplicity, just a rod and one can make them from a nail if missing. I thought they were the same but remembered wrong. Now if I can remember to reset the safety after shooting I'll be OK.

I have an L. C. Smith Skeet Special that does that with most factory loads. Never does it with RST or my low pressure reloads. Something I need to get Brian Dudley to look at for me. John Davis

I was shooting 3 Dram 1 1/8 factory Federal loads in the 2 frame VHE. So not really excessive kick. I plan to use it on a turkey this spring since both chokes are right at .040 so I can't have the second barrel unavailable, just in case.
