Yes Eeb. I'm about to adjust my process after this to include Ferric Oxide in between carding..

Ballistix 999
I HAVE A JOSEPH LANG 12 BORE UNDER LEVER AND THE RIGHT SIDE PLATE HAS A SMALL SELECTOR JUST LIKE A SAFETY CATCH,WICH ALLOWS YOU TO SELECT THE SAFETY CATCH TO BE ETHER A AUTOMATIC OR MANUAL SAFETY.
I ALL SO HAVE A NOTHER 16 BORE JOSEPH LANG UNDER LEVER THAT HAS THIS AREA OF THE SIDE PLATE FILLED WITH A DUMMY SCREW.
IN THE LAST 10 YEARS I HAVE ONLY COME ACROSS ONE OTHER J LANG WITH THIS SAFETY CATCH SELECTOR.
WHEN MY GUNSMITH STRIPED MY GUN WITH THE SAFETY CATCH SELECTOR
HE TOLD ME THE MECHANISM WAS VERY FINE,MAY BE THE MECHANISM WAS TO FINE AND LANGS DISCONTINUED THIS SAFETY SELECTOR.
I HAVE SEEN OTHER LANG UNDER LEVERS WITH THIS AREA OF THE SIDE PLATE FILLED IN.
ITS INTERESTNG TO SEE THAT YOUR GUN HAS COCKING INDICATOR HOLES ON THE TOP STRAP FILLED IN, IT WOULD SEEM THAT YOUR GUNS FRAME WAS MADE TO ACCOMADATE COCKING INDICATORS,MAY BE THEY FELL OUT FAVOUR AND THE HOLES WERE FILLED IN.

Extremely interesting your post there sidelever! Indeed inside that little lump the other side is some sort of mechanism that effects the safety...will look into it further...can you post any pics of yours please?

WILL TRY TO POST PICTURES OF GUN, MAY TAKE 2 OR 3 DAYS HAVE NEVER POSTED BEFORE.
