okie johnBig Bore Lever Gun Question
I need a source for the doodads that block the crossbolt safety on a Marlin 1895 45/70 and a Winchester M-94 in 44 Magnum. Are they still avaiilable, or have the attorneys driven them into the sea? Thanks in advance, Okie John.

congomikeSeveral months ago I read an article on the web site SIXGUNNER.COM, by John Taffin about a "block" type thing that he used to replace the cross bolt safety in a Marlin. When finished it looked like another screw in the side of the receiver, just like it belonged there. I looked this a.m. and didn't see the article as still being posted, but you might contact him through this web site and maybe he can help you. Hope this helps a bit.

N E 450 No2I know of some people who have put Lock-tite on the crossbolt safety, in the off position of course.

It worked for them.

pertinaxI hate to be rude, but did you search the web before posting? Took less than 30 seconds to find:
Clyde Ludwig, P.O. Box 26156 Wauwatosa, WI 53226-0156,
ph: 414-536-1101, has built a replacement which looks like a screw in the receiver. $12,95 including shipping and handling (cashier's
check or money order only). It's made from blued steel. Installation takes 10 minutes or less.
And I think there are other sources, too.
