Kopfjager, after doing a little research, I'm sorry to report that I've come up with no real answer to your question. I did find that a company out of Yakima, Washington (Anderson Gun Shop) used to do tang conversions on bolt-action rifles and maybe the Savage Model 99. I don't know if they ever converted semi-auto shotguns to tang safeties or even if they're still around.
Also, there is a poster who goes by "hap" at on the Alaska Outdoors forum who says he converts Remington Model 870s to tang safeties. I'm not a member at this site so I was unable to inquire further.
And before I forget, welcome to The Firing Line Kopfjager!
