Ruger Oversized Safety
      #18325 - 22/08/04 05:53 PM

Does anyone know where I can find an oversized safety
to fit a Ruger MKII-the present one on my 338 is no good
on a dangerous game gun

That is my main complaint of the M77 Mk II rifle. That tiny little safety is a bugger to get to in a tense situation. I believe Brownells sells a a replacement wing for it. Will be interesting to see what others have done.

I'm looking for one myself. I looked on Brownell's website, but couldn't find one. Hopefully someone else knows where to fine one.

Although I have never found the Ruger trigger a problem, its always performed for me, if I wanted it bigger I would have a good tig welder build it up and have a good gunsmith shape it for me...That isn't a major job either...

The trigger is not the problem-its the pissy little safety.
