Gunsmithing Safty not working Win Pre 64 Model 70

[FJB67]

I have a Pre 64 model 70 Win that I inherited and the safety will not engage to safe. I have been looking for a replacement bolt and have had no luck is there anyone out there who can fix or tell me how to fix?

The cocking piece needs to be replaced. Best to take it to a gunsmith for the work.

David Tubb makes a good replacement:

Don't listen to this guy!!! The cocking piece does not need to be replace. All it takes is someone to adjust the fit between the safety lever and cocking piece. I have done dozens of them.

+1 on gundoktr. Likely can be adjusted out.
