Spingfield custom sagfety.
Who makes the 2 position side swing safeties for 03 Springfields?

I don't make them, I convert the original shrouds to two position.

If Mr. Kobe's offer does not work for you, try Ed Lapour in Bremerton, WA; he has a web site, also.

Luck,

I got my Gary Goudy 03 made (1991) today. Does anyone make custom rings and bases for 03s? It came with Conetrol low rings. I don't much care for them.

I also do the custom Talley bases for the '03.

If you're looking for the components, Wisner makes' um. An easy job for a gunsmith-machinist with the right tools.

If you are interested in an original pre 64 mod. 70 safety and shroud, I happen to have one Id sell, they are hard to come by..

Jim, is that a Dunlap style flange on the left side of the bolt shroud, used to block escaped gas? Is that a three position safety? Do you make the headless cocking piece? Any ignition problems?

If I remember correctly, that is a Lapouir three psition safety; he supplies a new firing pin with the kit.

From Ed Lapour's web page showing his safties offerings:

"Ed LaPour Gunsmithing manufactures a selection of Winchester-style 3-position safeties for a variety of bolt-action rifles. Please use the links below to view more information on your areas of interest."

http://edlapourgunsmithing.com/3-position-safeties/

A pic on that page shows his Springfield safety,
and others.
I have had about a half dozen of his CZ 550 3-position safties installed by first one smith and then another. tu2
