Push Button Safety

**Donzi** · 06-01-2011 05:36 PM

The push safety on my 1944 Winchester will only engage/move if the action is cocked. Is this normal, or should it move side to side whether the weapon is cocked, or not? Thanks in advance.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Its not normal, you have an issue with the trigger not resetting properly.

+1 for what Brian said. You probably have a trigger spring that is not set right, or maybe a dis-connector problem.
