My 71 is a Browning repro and I also have 1886 and 1895 Winchester repros. As mentioned, the Winchesters have the tang safety and rebounding hammers. I had the rebounding hammers disabled with half cock notches added to work the same as the Browning. On the 1886, I also had the tang safety disabled and removed, and added a vernier tang sight to cover the recess in the tang. If I were to modify anything on the Browning 71, it would be reshaping the pistol grip to better resemble the original 71 Deluxe.
