[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2072237, member: 10755"] Looks like a Timney 2 position safety to me. Some gunsmithing is in order by the sound of it. They aren’t always a drop in and need clearance within the bolt shroud as it takes up the firing pin pressure off the sear. If it bothers you, have a competent smith look at it, it will be a simple job to alleviate any clearance issues. You can field strip the bolt, push the firing pin into a hole in a block of wood or such, then push down compressing the firing pin spring and rotate the bolt shroud off the firing pin, the shroud and safety come off as a unit. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
