Rube Burrows Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I’m looking to buy a Stevens 311-A safety switch. Mine broke a while back and I haven’t been able to locate one. I have tried several from eBay that I hoped would work but none of them have. Tried Numrich, eBay and other places that I know of. No one has any. if you know of another that would for sure work please let me know. I’m get tired tired of buying and them not working. thanks.

Old Man Graybeard Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Not completely sure if Jack is spelled First or Furst. I believe they are in South Dakota. Ahlmans gun shop is in Morristown, Minnesota. Coyote Cap's Dad started the shop. His brother Larry took it over...and now Larry's son Mike is in charge.

I have bought several but they have all been too thick to fit in the slot. They seem to look the same but there must be differences in the thickness. I could measure the slot if you have one.

I have purchased a few from ebay that claimed to be from a 311 but none of them worked for various reasons. Mostly being to thick to pass through the cutout.
