Anybody see a problem with the lower safety lever in the photo below? I bought it today at a local show from an old guy with a motherlode of '03 parts (also found a correct smooth buttplate and grooved lower barrel band...all for next to nuthin'). I was so tickled to find one with no-serif lettering that I failed to notice there was no groove milled to mate with the firing pin.

Am I missing something here? Is it a safety for a different rifle? A fake? I can't find anything on ViShooter or in the book I have that shows the different safety lever designs...but I can tell you from experience that this one don't work when you try to assemble the bolt! Trust me...and they're hard enough to install in the first place!
