I was using a Model 21 (with auto safety) the other day at skeet. I like the gun for skeet more than I thought I would but I have GOT to remove the auto safety. I think they are different than a typical European/English/Fox/Parker double. Any coaching on the M 21 would be most appreciated. Gil

Hey Gil, CSMC converted the safety to non-auto on this double trigger beauty. 16 gauge, factory choked Mod/Cyl and used mostly for Skeet. No regrets.

I have converted several safeties in the past. It requires making a new connector from the trigger group to the safety slide which has an elongated slot

You can buy the part(s) from CSMC and do it yourself. I did it a few years ago.

Same here. I hated the auto safety on mine. I attempted the conversion, then sent it to a gunsmith to fix my mistake. It would have been cheaper to send directly to a smith. Lesson learned.

Mike: It was made about 1940. It belonged to my grandfather, a 2 barrel set 16 ga. He made the stock and though it is short for me, I did a leather covered pad--maybe 1 1/4" thick so it fits me. But this auto safe is a real PIA! Hope you are well. I did a stock on a 20 ga M 21 that came out pretty well and am thinking about doing this one also. Gil Russell

Bill: Thank you for your reply. I looked at their website and didn't see the parts. I would be interested in doing that conversion. When you have time, could you give me some more of the details. Thank you and kind regards, Gil Russell Tucson AZ

LWS: Thank you for the reply. Could you provide some more details on where the problem was? I am inclined to do it myself but you might be able to talk me out of that. Many thanks, Gil Russell

Thank you for the reply. I would be interested in learning more about it--the process and what the cost would be if I find it is beyond my shop skills. Kind regards, Gil Russell
