Cast 98 Swing type safety lever broke, now what?
I found some videos on youtube where I can take this thing apart. It is a military mauser with a thumb cut sporterized by Pasadena gun corp in the 1950s.

Their safety and shroud appear to be chromed. I think the lever is cast metal.

Does anyone make a lever that I can fix this thing with cheaply?

I am trying to sell the gun and don't want to get bamboozeled anymore than I normally would.

Yes. Free cheap enough for you? But you need to know what you are doing to fit it up. I have some of the raw castings.

Problem solved traded it for a NIB Howa 1500 in 30-06 with a fluted barrel.

I'll be picking it up in 10 days, gotta love that about California.
