My two favorite rifles are a Winchester model 70 and a Ruger M77 mk II. Both have a 3 position safety that is a bit loud. I hunt deer in the thick Georgia pines. Many times the click of the safety going off gets the deer's attention. I am not sure I have really lost a deer on it's account but it is worrisome. Can this be made more quiet? Thanks "D" | ||

I addition to what Allen Day suggests the spring in the safety can be changed to a lighter one. This along with adding a small detent to hold the safety back in the full safe position will make the lever easier to move. When it's easier to move with these modifications then one can let it off with the thumb and it will not slip and make noise. Until all this is done let the safety off with two fingers if necessary. | |||

I found that on my Ruger MKII that if one keeps a little downwards pressure on the safety when taking it off slowly There is very little noise. If one truely has to take it off fast the noise isn't going to make a differants. | |||
