I just acquired this rifle (Nagoya Series 10) 2-weeks ago. It is in fairly nice condition but I cannot figure out the safety lock-out. I can easily push the cap in but it will not rotate to lock. Production was estimated to be around Feb '45. I'm thinking the 'twist-lock' feature should work -- the other possibility is that this feature was deleted from the rifle to trim one more time consuming production step.

I have pulled the bolt but cannot determine what should be providing the lock feature when the cap is rotated. Some pictures of what should be locking up would be appreciated.

Thanks -- Randy
