I am wondering if anybody knows about the sight on the Winchester 45-70. I know the rifle is from Japan but most of the 86’s have a trang safety.. I ask the dealer if the safety had been disabled and removed but he did not know.

Sight is marked CSA for C. Sharps Arms of Big Timber, Montana. I guess the only way to know if the rifle was made with a tang safety would be to pull the tang sight.
I call myself a collector as it sounds better than hoarder
