How to download Safari 6.1 dmg for install

I would like to download Safari 6.1 dmg to install later on both of my macs. (to save on my data usage) Where is the download?

The App Store seems to want to install only....

With the larger file sizes, I seem to eat up all of my data usage early on if I download updates individually for each mac I own.

Any help would be appreciated.

😟 By the way.... I've looked and I do not find Safari 6.1 in Support>Downloads>Browse by Product>Safari

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

Unfortunately, it's not available as an independent download.

If you should ever need to reinstall Safari on a Mac running v10.8 (as noted in your profile) you would have to use OS X Recoverywhich requries a broadband (high speed) connection.

The url's are in the standard catalog :

http://swscan.apple.com/content/catalogs/others/index-mountainlion-lion-snowleopard-leopard.merged-1.sucatalog

search inside using say TextEdit for long url's ending in Lion.pkg

although be aware that the packages listed usually make no checks as to suitability, so installing the wrong one can break things.
