I put a Stainless Hawkeye back into the rotation and remembered how hard it is to get the safety moved off from the rearmost position. When these were my primary hunting rifle I got used to keeping the safety in the middle position but it still gets bumped and sometimes you want the safety all the way back.

I know that Phil Shoemaker worked a solution for these small safety levers with a lump of Devcon...anyone have pictures of this? All the pics seem to have been taken down.


I can think of several ways to do it, but no reason to reinvent the wheel.
