Trying to identify this Mauser 98 3 position safety...I can not find one on the net JUST like it? Thanks!

That's not a hole in the position lever...reflection off of table top.

looks a lot like Lapour to me

On the second photo the relief cut to the left of the lever pivot does not look like the same as what's on Ed's site.

I bought it thinking it was a LaPour safety. Now I don't think it is ( I have a Lapour to match it up to...close). It's a quality part I bought off the internet unknown then, and still unknown to me.

Wisner 3 position safety?

got one a those from someone on here

Maybe it was ebay.

Looks like one of Jim's to me.

richj...they are the same. Mine come out of a pawn shop on Ebay.

I'd almost bet a box of beer that its a ChiPop, Dumoulin 98 Mauser. I don't often bet, unless I'm pretty sure I'm gonna win !

Strax.

The pics you show is of a PME saftey. See the number egraved on the sleeve, the same number will be on the bottom of the serated arm of the lever.

And yes I can sometimes read my writing all these years later.


The pics of one with the green background is of a Dumoulin saftey, note the mis match of the top of the safety to sleeve, and under behind the sleeve lock that cut is not as deep and mis matched.

LOL I gotta pay more-tention. I opened the thread and scrolled up to the pictures. I didn't even see the top group of photos. Yeah the top one looks like it was made by some Mercan kid.

If it's a quality piece I doubt it's a Dumoulin. I've got one out in the shop I'll look at tomorrow and compare. Machining is nice, have you looked at an NECG Recknagel?

Thanks Jim, it's a nice safety and still unused, I feel like I paid a good price for it also. At first I thought that was "LS" but I believe it's "51". Thanks for your reply!

If I'd been on here sooner I could have had a BOX of BEER to go with it!

I dunno. The one in green looks awfully Dumoulinish to me. I hope you're not sitting on that box of beer. I like COLD beer!

Yep! Me too!

It works best if you start at the top of the post and work your way down...it works out better for ya that way.

I sure hope it's some good Danish Pilsen beer and not that Mercan weasel piss. And cold. Very cold!
