It's been so long ago, I don't exactly remember how I got one back together. IIRC, the safety button has to be in the "Fire" position and the bolt has to be out. The trigger will also be in the "Fire" position since the bolt is out. Then the release of the trigger fits up into a cutout in the safety tab. I doubt if this is much help, but pretty sure which position the safety button has to be in.
If it were here, I could get it back together in five minutes, but to explain it...........I'm at a loss.

You tube video search will help. Safety has to be installed in action before trigger group is installed

Yes I did that but the little push button of the safety on top just falls off I see no way to attach it to the long bottom part I search u-tube they explain how to install the trigger on a 110 action but the trigger looks nothing like the one I have but no mention how to get the safety installed My action is a Model 12 I will take a picture of the parts to the safety Thanks Lou

Call Savage and ask to talk to a tech and see if they can walk you through it. Short of that, post your question over on savageshooters.com

A gunsmith has the necessary expertise and tools to diagnose the issue and reinstall the safety correctly.

A gunsmith can safely disassemble the rifle, reinstall the safety correctly, and ensure proper function.
