Big Wonderful WyomingSwapping a M70 safety to the other side?
I found some left hand M70 factory safeties.
I have always felt like the M70 safety was on the wrong side.
Is it a simple matter to the RH unit for a LH unit?

sliversThe cocking piece would need beveled, too,, so it will cam back the firing pin assembly as it should.
I assume you found left hand bolt shrouds and not just the safeties;
All the Left handed bolt action bolt shrouds I have seen have left handed threads: won't fit a right handed bolt.

Thanks Tom

Big Wonderful WyomingWould be awesome if someone would make one for a M70.
I get them from NECG; they are the primary Recknagel dealer in the US. For Mausers I mean.
