safeties are over-rated... specially onnuh house gun...
Or a field pumpgun for that matter. My high school vintage stevens 12 pump had it removed. I simply carried it with brass of the shell exposed, better than a safety. Closed it with the pump as I shouldered it.
'cept this one is broke in the way that it just keeps falling "on" for no particular reason. It's really annoying. Time to go to the 870 methinks.
I only own that one because an old friend was going through a divorce and wanted to sell off a bunch of his guns. He sold me that mossberg and an old argentine mauser for $100 fer the both of 'em. He got the better end of the deal, but I wasn't worried about it at the time.
