Oberndorf Commercial Mausers - Low Scope Mount safety?
31/03/20 03:02 AM

Hi all,

As I’ve posted about previously on this forum I have a Oberndorf commercial Mauser sporter with a factory scope mount (Hensoldt Dialytan 4x). The issue with the rifle and scope mount is that the scope is mounted low and therefore the factory flag safety is blocked and will not engage when the scope is mounted. Fortunately this rifle has double triggers and so in a similar manner to having a double action revolver there is some built in safety from the heavy trigger pulls (unless the rear trigger has been set). I also am a firm practitioner of firearm safety and never have my finger on the trigger unless ready to fire. Nevertheless having an operational safety would be nice to have for maximum security in the field.

Does anyone know of aftermarket safeties that require minimum to no gunsmithing that could work on these commercial sporters? I know the Buehler type safeties work for M98s but my understanding is those are for military 98s as they require a military style bolt shroud. But perhaps they could work for commercial sporters as well?

If anyone has experience with this issue please let me know. Thanks!
