Three position safeties
Hi guys, does anyone else manufacture 3 position safeties for 98 Mausers apart from David Gentry? Will they work with any triggers?
I will be visiting the USA during June and I hope to purchase a few "odds and sods"

Dakota and Wisner's come to mind. I'm not aware of any trigger issues, as these safeties act on the striker.

Ed LaPour makes a really nice unit that doesn’t require as much tinkering and fitting as the others do.

I have a Dakota on my 09 Argentine that looks great and works fine. I'm using a Timney trigger....

That's a good looking safety.....the cost (shipped) is $207...per an email I just got.

Did you check out his 03 Springfield models? With the cocking piece (which is gorgeous) it runs $300.00. One will be going on an 03 sporter I’m putting together.

This AR forum is THE place on the Internet to find out about 3 position safety's. At least one of the manufacturers posts here. Do a search.

Steer clear of the Gentry unit. Do a search here and you will see why. I understand he had shipped a bunch to Brownell's and the indexing was off 180 deg.

I just put two of Ed Lapour's on Remington 700s and they are quality stuff.

Do you want to pick up the two position while you are in town?
