You might be able to repair the safety w/o disassembling the receiver - if you take off the buttstock via it's through-bolt under the BP, a peek should tell the tale.

While the wood & barrels are off, the receiver can be degreased, masked off, and a decent finish like Oxypho-Blue (sp?) from Brownells sprayed on.

Beware, though - IF it's painted/coated, it will show wear/scratching after the action top lever is cycled maybe 5x.

Please check your PM for some safety removal instructions.
