OP texas_hawg Campfire Regular T Joined: Feb 2015 Posts: 1,528 Texas	I just picked up a savage 340a for dirt cheap. I’m by no means a collector, just couldn’t pass up this deal as he basically threw in this gun when I bought a browning light 12. My issue is I can’t get the safety to disengage. Safety travels about a quarter inch forward and back. Pictures attached for reference. Im assuming you have to pull the trigger to pull the bolt and I can’t do that with the safety stuck. Any help/guidance would be appreciated.

It’s in good condition, likely just a range gun once a year. Good is not good when better is expected. ~ Thomas Fuller
