Are there any issues with this style of safety? I have not seen it before (but am not a big Mauser guy).

It would appear to be a simple aftermarket 2 stage trigger for a right handed shooter. The retaining pin on yours appears to be threaded , which is advantageous.
 
That is a Chapman 2-posotion safety. I bought one of the kits on ebay. It could also be adapted for my Springfield. I guess they work okay but it required more sophisticated machinery to modify the shroud than was available to me so I sold it and bought a 3-position Model 70 style safety with bolt shroud from Parkwest. Wisner also sells basically the same kit as Chapman.

Someone did a nice job fitting it to that gun.

Hi Marcus
I'll 2nd limcroma! Booked 2nd trip at SCI last week. Those guys are great. Trying to get hooked up with Peter when he gets to the states if I can break away.

What sling studs do those swivels fit ? They look to be quite a bit wider than the standard modern swivels. They may be just what I need for my Remington 30 Express wide swivel studs. Can you measure the pin diameter ?

Do you know where your .240 Weatherby was manufactured?
