I'm not sure what the objective of this modification might be, but it will get you barred from a match.

Should the removed parts get lost or misplaced, it might negatively impact the resale value of your M52, should your prospective buyer be a competitive shooter.

Just a friendly FYI.

Couldn't have been better said. The 52 is a bullseye gun. There are no speed reloads, no tactical reloads. In bullseye shooting you never leave a loaded round in the chamber. Why take away a safety feature that protects those around you at the range?
