Dale, from your description I think it is the only way it will fit into the gun. How did you attach it to the receiver. If this is the first model 25 it would have a short screw with a nut to hold it to the side of the receiver where the lever could move up and down when cocked. Make sure you remove the take down screw and separate the barrel assembly from the receiver. This will allow the safety bar lever to lower and rest on the bottom of the frame, now put the trigger spring in place.

Jeez,
you take a break, come back, and find things-a-popping. Well, Happy Holidays
everybody! Let
me chime in on safe bars. As far as I know, the only removable safe bar on the
No.25 was the very first model. The short-thread screw used must have been
super easy to work loose--and immediately disappear. It was also not a
hardware-store replacement, and it was not listed on the parts list for repair.
So it looks like a quick about-face at Daisy, as they next used a fixed rivet (see pic of the engraved receiver) to secure the safe bar. This was not meant to be messed around with, and why
you would find a gun with the bar / rivet removed seems odd. Me,
I would take that opportunity to study the situation. How big is the rivet
hole? How long was the rivet? What did it look like, what can I substitute?
Hopefully someone else can chime in here if they have heard of a similar
repair. You all have a nice Near Years! PS--the
safe bar screw here has a 7/32nd” shoulder to match the hole in the
receiver. Oddly, the only matching thread was a 4mm screw (that I threaded into
the safe bar, and ditto for a 4mm nut I tried on the screw. Nothing else worked. |

FWIW, the new style 25 made overseas also has a screw holding the bar... no idea what thread size is.

This
is the “safe bar” screw from the 2019 Daisy receiver. When I was dissembling
this gun (some time ago) I was not watching for the parts relationship. I
pulled up my notes and found two areas of interest. One, I had been told to
remove this little screw before the
trigger assembly could be removed. Two, with all the screws removed, I could
not get the trigger assembly out. I
tugged & pushed & shook, but nothing happened. But as I was setting it
aside, the assembly literally just fell out. Now,
I cannot get it back in (enough to push the thru-bolt through). But holding the
loose parts in their approximate position, I could see the safe-bar screw does
not screw into anything internally.
It just screws into the receiver wall itself. The bright, worn area shown in
the picture appears to be where this screw contacts the trigger assembly bar. This
gun was new & virtually unused. Back
to the original problem, the original poster needs someone to help him with a
replacement rivet (or similar). I have no familiarity with the rivet itself, or
how much ‘slop’ a homemade repair could be tolerated. I do recall a photo where
a No.25 had a repair where a short screw was run from the inside, with a nut
then placed on the stub on the outside. P.S.
The 2019 version screw is approximately 4mm or so. A 3/32nd” drill
bit fits into the receiver hole itself. I don’t know the SAE equivalent. |

Thanks, but that trigger assembly is entirely different then mine. I was able to get a bolt into the gun with a nut on the back side to hold the safe bar but I must have something wrong as the bar is always sitting behind the trigger no matter is the gun is cocked or not. Any idea what I could have wrong? What causes the bar to move up and out of the way so the trigger can be pulled?

Dale, the bar is suppose to be behind the trigger. Look at the diagram of the trigger and trigger spring installation that jackdog posted.

Cobalt’s helpful observation made me go
back to the disassembled (2019) No 25 and did a ‘dry’ fit of the barrel /
receiver. That is, the ‘take down’ feature. When assembled, the tiny screw fell
about 3/8” or more deeper downwards in the
receiver than the closest part of the inserted barrel. Meaning it did not interfere
with barrel insertion or removal. On
the other hand, if the trigger assembly had been in place, maybe there is an interaction
between the three pieces (screw, trigger, barrel)? I
swear, the action of the safe bar in these guns (and in this new version) is
going to make me do an autopsy grinder cut-out one day--just to understand the
relationship. |

dale; I am new to Daisy bb guns also & but I have been working on several old #25 recently. From my observation of the safety bar it falls down and blocks the trigger when the barrel assembly is removed from the receiver. The twisted cocking lever has two pins on either side that pushes the plunger back when cocking. One of those pins is longer and it operates the safety lever. hope my explanation helps.
