Who has the tooling and is cutting the G.I. shrouds for the side swing modle 70 type safety? I need both large, and small ring shrouds cut.

If you're talking about the system 98...either small or large ring Mausers use the same buttress threads on the bolt shroud..same diameter bolt..... You're time /money ahead purchasing a Gentry unit. If you want to get really tight fit, use a La Pour, but these require LOTS of fitting. The conversion you mention is a TWO position safety...does not allow easy disassemby of the bolt innards

Jim Kobe does very nice work, from what I hear. He has volunteered to find some parts for me and do some work very reasonably in the distant past.

I have also uesd this fellow:

Call Jerry Dunn at Royal Arms Gunstocks $50 and they work great.

do you want a side lever, 2 position safety on a worked shroud

or do you want a winchester model 70 type 3 position safety?

Jim does great work on the former for like 100 bucks

dakota or gentry for the later, and installed, should run you 225 or so.

lapour makes a CUSTOM FIT ONLY gorgeous shroud.
for about 300 bucks +install


opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club

Don't recognize the screen name but if I did one of the Gentry's for you, don't ask me to do another, they are a POS and flat don't work.

If you want an extremely well made 3 position fo your mauser and you want it to look "sort of" like your original mauser safety you can't do better than ones like I purchased from Timan, as shown in the photo.

Another option for a mauser, also shown in the photo, is the FN type, which operates on the left side.

And I also believe Timan offers 3 positions that operate from the left side as well.
