Downshift,
Between the cocking bolt and the rear bolt, there is a horizontal lever that's pointing to the left. Is that horizontal lever the safety? If so, how is it manipulated from safe to fire without hitting the ocular bell of the scope?
Did your Mauser come w/ the cocking bolt already turned down?

Not him, obviously, but yeah, that is the safety. On that rifle, the scope looks high enough for it to work. However, there are plenty of low scope safeties that can be put on pretty easily.

Yes that is the original safety. I can't use it because of the scope. If you look closely, there is a 700 style safety on the side of the bolt which is part of the aftermarket timney tigger.
And the bolt was bent by the smith who built the gun.
