A while back I picked up a Winchester trigger group (complete), had been just sitting here so thought I would disassemble and clean, boy did it need it, full of crud, TG is very well used with mixed parts, a real nice M2 hammer with a 'U' and a stand up 'fork'. My question is on the flip safety, is stamped with a H.T., have not been able to locate who may have made it. Looking for an answer, Thanks

Sadly,that is one of the unanswered carbine questions we would like to find a definitive answer to.

Dan,
I've messaged that seller with the in the wrap H.T. safeties multiple times asking about the wrap. Even offering to buy if it comes in the wrap. He always replies with a "yes". Nothing more nothing less. I'll look, I believe he is in Maryland. Safeties are packed 1 per sealed pack, with same late 63 dates shown in the links.

If you, or anyone, have a H.T. safety that was obtained in the sealed packaging we would ask that you post a clear picture of the packaging and safety. 

then we would have to determine if different safeties were found in the packaging with the same nomenclature with initials or numbers to rule out repacks.

Ideally a package containing a H.T. flip safety with a vendor name or assigned number could be looked up to confirm.

I would ask that any info be posted in the linked post so all information is in one post.
