Swinging safety on 98's
I've ordered this & one of these.
It'll be another week or so before I get them.
Any other advice or is this work "foolproof"??

I'm going to see if the speedlock makes a differance as well.

With a mill it is pretty straight forward,The fixture makes it nice!

The jig makes it pretty straight forward. I'm not a fan of chapman safeties though. The kit should come with some shims, make sure you keep them as the pivot point of a wisners wing ( the ones I do like) is in a different spot. The only other tool that makes install easier is the offset drill guide decribed in the directions you'll get with the chapman safety. I made one and use it for both chapman and PME wings. I like to plug the safety hole as decribed in the instructions, but use the PME kit and modify the pivot screw. Like this.

DM, hey thanks for the visual insperation!
I'm going to try on a '98 first, if I don't Frankenstein it, an '03 is next.

Here's a chapman, please ignore the file marks and cold blue though. Smiler
