[QUOTE="7mmSendaro, post: 737263, member: 7566"] I just went through the safety issue you are discussing on a Timeny trigger. There is a detent pin for the safety position that actually travels out the side of the trigger housing opposite the safety lever. If there isn't enough clearance between the trigger housing and the stock for this pin to travel, the safety can't move freely. The above may be hard to picture from my description, but remove the action from the stock and see if the safety moves freely. If it does, watch the trigger housing on the opposite side from the safety lever while moving the safety and you will see the small pin popping in and out of the housing. Make certain there is sufficient clearance inside the stock. As others have mentioned, it can also be the safety lever itself dragging on the stock somewhere. If the safety doesn't move freely with the action removed from the stock, call TImney. Took me some time and choice words to figure this out on a Remington 700 a couple weeks ago. In either case, find a new gunsmith! [/QUOTE]
