I bought a new rem 870 turkey gun last spring and being a lefty I was wondering if the safety (the new style with the locking mechanism)
could be reversed to accomodate a left handed shooter?
Thanks,
Mike
Funny you should mention that...
I have spoken to a fellow member whom shares my thoughts on that locking safety. Seems we both were able to "disable" the gun , lock up the safety - without a key.
IMO, get rid of that locking safety. * ahem* it is a shame yours "broke" and all your gunsmith had was the "old style" and being a lefty and all, and being the "responsible safe hunter you are". Gunsmith installed a new LH safety for you.
Remington is discontinuing this feature on their centerfire rifles and will sell relplacement kits as complete kits. They are also supposedly discontinuing on their shotties and I would expect them to offer replacement kits for the 870 as well. Check the Remington site.
