Just finished installing a gentry 3 position safety on my 6.5x55 zastava. With the advise from Mike Mcabe and several hours it turned out nice. Had no trouble with the thread timing, the shroud screwed right on, just took some time making the two cuts, one on the bolt body and the other on the cp.
Sounds good. I'm looking at the same procedure here soon for my 9.3. Did you need to remove any material from the firing pin at all? I've seen accounts (and some manufacturers directions) that a 45-deg. relief may be needed on FP.

I but in a speed lock pin and spring for david tubbs and did not have to do any mods to them, just the two cut I mentioned before. In the instructions gentry said that a Wolf Bitzschnell striker spring (stock #969-625-024 from brownells catalog)must be used.
