I have a 20 grade 1 and a 12 grade 6 both made in 1926 and have the rectangular hole in the floor plate. I have not used them much yet. I have tried leaving the barrels open while hunting (with other guns) and invariably I forget and the shells wind up on the ground. I wonder if some scotch tape would work.
I vaguely recall someone telling me or my reading it here that if you pull back the under lever the gun cannot fire. I have not tried it. Anyone know if that rumor is true? and whether it is viable for upland hunting?
