Hello lancaster,

Thanks for the reply,

Yes, I believe that was the only difference, the bolt face. According to the ad, you could specify a standard Mauser Wing safety, or a Commercial shroud with a sliding side safety for scope use. Not sure if they came that was from France, or Tradewinds swapped out the safeties / triggers.

Two of my Brevex actioned rifles have standard Mauser Wing safeties, two have Commercial shrouds with sliding side safeties, and one, the 450 Ackley Mag, has a Commercial shroud with no safety at all. That one has since been upgraded with a Winchester style 3-position safety.
