I recently acquired a number of rifles from an old friend, and among them is what I think is a Mauser. It's fairly old, and shows signs of heavy use.
The issue I'm having is with the safety - it won't engage. I've searched all kids of fixes for this, but the bolt in my hands doesn't match exactly the ones in the videos, and the bolt tear-down guides mention features that I can't identify (eg: "Depress the retaining pin on the bolt sleeve with your thumb" - I can't see any "retaining pin").
