Installing the Marlin 1894 and 1895 Crossbolt Safety Replacement Pin (basic safety delete)
Posted by Honus Titcomb on Jun 7th 2019
Use the proper slot head style screwdriver specific for working on firearms to avoid damaging the factory hardware.
- Make certain the rifle is unloaded and point it in a safe direction.
- Remove the butt stock from the rifle by removing the single stock screw.
- Use a 5/64” allen (hex key) wrench to remove the factory screw shown:
- The factory hardware holding the cross-bolt safety in consists of a set screw, spring and steel ball. The factory crossbolt safety will fall out if the hammer is pulled back.
- Insert the safety replacement into the right side of the receiver with the slotted end of the pin aligning with the right side of the receiver once the pin is inserted. Shown below
- Align the detent in the pin with the hole that the factory hardware was removed from. Then lower the hammer carefully to rest against the firing pin. Reinstall the factory hardware. The steel ball goes first followed by the spring, then the factory set screw. The spring can be left out if chosen.
- Reinstall the buttstock and buttstock screw.
