One comment if I may from a design perspective. The tang safety as shown in the DeHaas book (which I will assume was drawn from an actual gun) has a concern in that it is a trigger blocking safety and not a sear blocking safety. I am sure most of you understand the difference that can entail.
When I designed my gun, following the Fraser footprint, I changed the safety to a sear blocking type. This could also be done easily on the tang safety design.
Everyone gets to choose their desires but if you have intentions of selling your gun and someone drops it and the sear bounces free of engagement, you could possibly be looking at negative legal responsibility. As is said you get to choose.
If anyone is interested I can show a pdf of the CAD design I did for my gun. If yes can someone tell me how you would upload a file and attach it to the thread. Or do you load it like any other image?
