Are there any issues with this style of safety? I have not seen it before (but am not a big Mauser guy).

It would appear to be a simple aftermarket 2 stage trigger for a right handed shooter. The retaining pin on yours appears to be threaded , which is advantageous.
 
That is a Chapman 2-posotion safety. I bought one of the kits on ebay. It could also be adapted for my Springfield. I guess they work okay but it required more sophisticated machinery to modify the shroud than was available to me so I sold it and bought a 3-position Model 70 style safety with bolt shroud from Parkwest. Wisner also sells basically the same kit as Chapman.

Someone did a nice job fitting it to that gun.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
