winchester 1200 safety

I have a winchester model 1200 shotgun that is missing the safety. I can buy a safety, but I do not see what holds the safety in place. Is there a keeper of some sort that prevents the safety from falling out?
Thanks

If I recall correctly, the safety has to be held flush with the right side of the trigger housing when installing the spring, and one trick to this is putting a piece of tape across the right side of the trigger guard to keep the safety in place. This is probably the most tedious part of the job, because it requires everything to go exactly right. Do not force anything, or you will be looking for replacement parts.
Best of luck on your project, hope this has helped!
