New Springfield 1903 MKI

[Calfed]

I recently got a 1903 MKI at an on-line estate sale.




Description says:

Serial no.1132010, .30-06 cal., 24" barrel, dark parkerized finish, walnut stocks. "SA" marked barrel is dated "11-19" with Ordnance bomb stamp. Stock cartouches on left side and lower grip. Finger gripstock and Pederson device slot in left receiver.


Started thinking--the Pederson conversion was to fire a pistol -type round. Was wondering--this is still safe to fire the 30.06 round, even with the cut-out for the Pederson device, right?

Also got a Smith Corona A3
