I have installed a JP Rifles trigger. This is the second one. After fitting the trigger to the safety, which is a hard fit, and absolutely blocks the movement of the trigger, allowing no movement in the trigger, I can move the safety to the on position when the hammer is not cocked.

What gives?

The only way I see this happening is that the safety was fit to the trigger with the hammer installed/not cocked and/or the overtravel not set.  This holds the trigger higher (towards the safety) jps intructions state to fit safety/trigger with the hammer removed
how much material was removed from the trigger?
Does the safety work with the hammer cocked?

The hammer was not in when I fit the trigger to the safety. The safety works perfectly with the hammer cocked - it just also works with the hammer uncocked. The one thing I am afraid of is that I have a little less engagement than I should have. The other possibility that occurs to me is that when removing material from the trigger that I didn't maintain surface at the same angle, and that I might have created an angled surface that is blocked by the safety, but which has enough of an angle to allow the safety to engage.

If you had alot of trigger/sear engagement, when you rotate the safety, it would take some out (but still not drop the hammer)  or the body of your safety is rounded out
