K98 jammed safety
« on: June 14, 2020, 08:23:35 PM »
Helping a friend who has a K98 . The safety is stuck in the fire position . I have took it apart and cleaned it (was pretty bad ) and see that the flag safety is wore pretty bad and think should be replaced . I know my friend is going to ask "can't I keep shooting it way it is "  . My feelings are if a firearms safety is not working right it needs to be left alone till fixed  . I can change most things out on a gun but not a gunsmith . With that wore safety is there anyway for it to slip or something and allow it to fire besides of by mistake pulling the trigger . I will not make a guess on something like this .

I ordered the safety lever or what I call the flag and that has seemed to solve the problem . It functions in all the positions now .
