Honest ? When that slot is milled for the locking lever to pass through does it then block the firing pin from moving fwd. and preventing the weapon from discharging like a M70, Kimber, Ruger MKII, original 98 mauser, or a Buehler converted mauser shroud?
I have only 1 Rem. rifle and it will open with the "trigger" safety on (thats what I consider it because as near as I can tell that's all it does) and yes I have shouldered it before while hunting and the bolt was open and the cartridge lost somewhere in the woods. I bought a M70 to replace it.
"Honest?" in that's the work needed? Or "Honest?" that it does or doesn't block the firing pin?
Honest as in I truly do not know the answer . I didn't want to come off as a smart a$$ so that is exactly what I meant. It was an honest ? Sorry for any confusion.
ETA: Does it or does it not, block the firing pin?
I am aware of the gentry conversion and think it is a genuine upgrade to a 700.
