Safety broken?
I have a Type 56 that I cleaned up a few years back. I only shot it once but was looking to take it to the range soon. I had forgotten that when I cleaned up all the cosmoline and put the trigger pack back together that the safety was loose. I am able to shoot it but I would like to get the safety in working order.
The video shows how loose it is but when I push down on the forked part of the safety catch spring, it seems to work as intended. I was going to pull off the safety but that pin will not budge and when I try with a punch, it looks as if I'm bending the metal around it and making it worse.
Any thoughts on what I can do? Should I leave it as is? Try to find a new trigger pack? I was hoping to fix myself as I dont really want to put a lot more money into it than I need to.
I am in Cali and I dont want any issues while at the ranges in my area. Any help is appreciated!
