How does one go about inactivating the automatic safety on a BSS? Gratuitous photo of my BSS. Note the spectacular wood!  Thanks, Jeff

Take the butt stock off by removing the butt plate and the draw bolt. Take the receiver off and then remove the safety button which should allow you to take the rod out. Simply flip the rod around and reinstall it and all the other parts.

This picture shows the safety rod and the button - retainer clip - bar . You need to remove that clip so the 90 degree bar and rod can be taken out. Just flip the rod around so the collar on the rod can't push on the bar. The rod is flipped around in this picture. Note how far the collar is from the 90 degree bar.

Re wood on a BSS . . . In general, from what I've observed, the Charles Daly guns made by Miroku seem to have better wood than do the BSS.

Gratuitous photo of my BSS. Note the spectacular wood! That gun obviously has wood sourced from Beretta.

Piss elm was Browning's favorite wood for the BSS, though a few did escape with decent black walnut. Yours has a piece of select piss elm, JNW.

Looks like a Perazzi skid board, AKA stock blank. A friend ruled out Perazzi, he said the forend matches the butt stock so it can NOT be a Perazzi

I think the wood looks nice in a floor-board kind of way.

Below are two BSSs. the first one is a Sporter with standard wood and the second gun is a Sporter with Browning upgraded wood.
