416WSM on Siamese Mauser & 416/348Ackley Improved on Martini

Feedback from my cousin is that he does not like the left hand side activation. He would prefer that it fuctioned the same as early Brno safeties. Where forward and right, orientated across the bolt is safe. Fully back and orientated in line with the bolt is Fire.
By only mirroring the lever I think this can be achieved, but I cannot include the bolt lock with the laser cut blanks I have. Back to the shed to make one up for trial #2.

I would not want full back to be the fire position if avoidable. It is more awkward for thumb to pull safety back when gun is mounted. Simply pushing safety forward is more natural than trying to catch, hold, and pull it back. If safety remains on left side, it definitely should be pushed forward to fire for right handed rifle, if possible.

Back After a Long Time – Hello Again!


Hi everyone,


I’ve been a member since 2015 but haven’t been active since 2017. Life got busy, especially with building my second business. Still, I’ve kept my passion for hunting and followed things from afar. Now that I have more time, I’m excited to reconnect, contribute, and be part of the community again.


All the best,
ANDY

I'd like a bag of 100. I could actually pick it up since I'm in North Irving, but if you prefer, shipping it is fine.
