I have never shot a #1 but I've always liked them.
Looking at photos of stock #1's and the Trop.
Is the problem with the stock safety that when the safety is off (in the fire position) the front tang on the safety lever protrudes up into the shell groove preventing the shooter from extracting the casing or inserting a live round into the chamber?
Does the shooter have to manually engage the safety before opening the breach to extract a case?
