The pics I've seen of the Higgins rifle show the safety on the left side. If you want the option of letting it off quietly with thumb and forefinger, you might be better looking for one that swings on the R/H side. They are around - I've bought two over the years.

Thank you. I didn't think of Numrich. I don't quite know how to find the part. I guess look under mauser parts.

I really do like the safety on the left. If you push forward with ;your thumb and rotate down it is very quiet.

Thanks again for the replies

I do have part number but it's on my computer in Houston. Spent the last few says in Newfoundland for a funeral. Should be home tomorrow. I'll post it when I get back.

Wait. Didn't Duane offer you a free one, original at that? I'm confused.
