Why don't you check with Mike Merick Flying Dragon Air Rifles he might have one laying around or you could go to Archer Air Rifles, They both handle the QB rifles.  You might make sure it is only the safety lever and not also the spring and pin that is part of the safety assembly .Howie

thanks howard,..on mine ( ryans ) qb, the actual lever thats used to move the rifle from safe to fire has separated from the pin that goes thru the trigger housing. at 1st, i assumed it was held in place by a small screw, after looking though, it appears to be swaged in place. i may just drill and tap it to retain the "lever".

I bought one used that had the same repair.  Drilled and screwed.  Not sure if he used JBweld or something but it works.  I've punched it out several times to work on it and it still hasn't come apart.

I just looked at mine it looks like a kind of rivet could be maybe slipped back on and peaned over to form a rivet again It's just a guess since I can't see what you have. howie

I wonder about that every time I take one apart.

I don't get into having to take the safety off every time I have to off every time I have to take the stock off the rifle I just cut a little wood from under the safety the first time I remove the stock so the stock slides over the safety and the safety can just stay in place. a little work then you are done forever. howie
