grahamch Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 Have just bought a Beretta 690-3 game gun which has a manual safety catch, can this be converted into an auto sate? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shalfordninja33 Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 I've a 690-1 Field which came with an auto safety from new so expect they must be convertible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 Usually, there is a small rod inside that can be fitted to make the safety auto - or removed to make it manual. The rod works from the opening lever and pushed the safely catch back when the lever is operated. I suspect it will need making and fitting rather than just a 'drop in part' you buy, but I may be wrong. It is not a big job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was easy (drop a rod in), the other slightly less so as there was wood in the way - so needed minor drilling work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
