Safety was removed along with the lettering and a SS plug was turned and installed.

Blame the people who hail him when he speaks in the Forum of the new wonderful good society which shall now be Rome's, interpreted to mean more money, more ease, more security, and more living fatly at the expense of the industrious." -- Marcus Tullius Cicero

I took it to the range this morning. With some Ranch Dog bullets I cast out of Lyman #2 with 6.9g of Green Dot, I was shooting a 3" group, off hand at 50 yds! And I didn't have to touch the sights. It was spot on right from the factory. Amazing.
the action needs some love. It is very stiff. I ordered a Lee Spring kit from Brownells and when it comes in I'll do some magic with stones and files and get it as smooth as my other two Rossi 1892 rifles.
