I picked up this AC43 at discount due to the buggered stock. This is my first one so I thought it might be a good way to get my feet wet without spending a fortune. Biggest concern is this: the safety on this thing is like no other example that I can find (granted I have not seen that many). Not just the checkered knob, but the block it's attached to just behind the receiver.
I went to the store to see (its on layaway) it today and tried to field strip in in order to check for a cracked receiver and other issues, but the "take down button" as I will call it, won't press in and I didn't want to force it in the store. I have a strong feeling that this issue is related to the safety. Safety lever wont move to the fire position either, as obviously the button is in the way.
I realize that swapping the safety is not a difficult thing to do, but I want to make sure there isn't a bigger issue here. Good thing is I have a 100% money back option if I decide to cancel the layaway. Looking for help, appreciate you guys!!!!
