thank you
the mauser style wing safety was a finish modification for cavalry carbines. it is not very common and was the most expensive part of the lot. bokmal was knowing this and find it on a finish gun show, again thank you bokmal for your help


Very interesting. If I understand the method of operation, the front of the safety has a lug that bears on the back of the bolt body. As the safety is turned over from the safe to the fire position, the lug is moved out of position and the rifle is ready to fire. Do you have to modify the bolt body to provide clearance? Additional pictures would be most welcome.
