I have had and am again making up a LH Zastava in 9.3x62. It is a highly useful caliber for general purpose hunting. What did the late Bob Boatman say? The 3006 was designed to kill small men while the 9.3x62 was designed to kill big animals. It's also very pleasant to shoot. I strongly recommend you reach out to Gentry and get a LH 3 pos safety.
I would like to put a 3 position safety on it. What happens to the original safety when the switch is made? Is it just removed?
Comes right out. Perfect time to have the trigger tuned as well. If you get a real hankering you can use new bottom metal at some point, too along with a new bolt handle. Pretty soon you'll think about iron sights, and a new stock, and a... well, you get the idea. I got the first one shooting a 286 NP over 58.5 gr of RL 15 < 1/2 MOA which speaks more to the quality of the douglas barrel than my trigger finger.
