The safeties on these things don't positively engage or disengage, you just move it as far as it goes under finger pressure. The way you adjust the front sight for elevation is to replace the sight blade - there are 5 different blades, with one being a "0" and the other 4 being 2 shorter (to raise point of impact) and 2 taller (to lower POI.) I'm not sure of the markings on them. Northridge Int'l or Sarco should have everything you want for an Enfield.

I also have one of the navy arms reworked enfield's in 308. Does it have a 20in barrel. You will have to replace the front sight blade with a taller one. I haven't done this to mine yet but I know thats what it needs. As for the safety - I'm not sure - someone else will have to tell you. Good luck.

I just looked in my Numrich arms #22 catalog, pg. #865 and there is listed as part # 487690 Safety spring. Also nice exploded diagram of rifle. Also on pg #866 if Armorer's front sight adjusting tool (#386050, $51.95), and various length walnut Buttstocks (S=11 3/4 ", M (unmarked) =12 1/4", and L=12 3/4" $15.95 ea.. Go to [url]www.gunpartscorp.com[/url]. If you change front sight height to be "on" at 100 yds, rear sight gradations will be off. Don't know exact technique, but suggest you research how brits calibrated sights before you start.
