1992: Cross bolt Safety Added(not sure when rebounding hammer came on the scene, but it was on these guns)
After 2000 the cross bolt was dropped and the tang safety was added. Around 2002-3, I believe.
Cross bolt safety???

Next question: were all the cross bolt guns angle eject?
|
.
All cross bolt safety guns are angle eject. Rebounding hammer and CBS were introduced about the same time, 1983-84. . |
|
But not all angle ejects have the cross bolt safety. The angle eject came in around 1982-83 and the cross bolt was introduced around 1992.

You are close, the angle eject came along in 1983 with the Big Bore and in 1984 on others. I am in error on the CBS, you are correct. I intended to say that the angle eject and rebounding hammer were introduced about the same time. . |
