For those who may know:
Is the safety from AHR (American hunting rifles) company for CZ 550 or ZKK 602, made of steel or inox?
If made of steel, does it need tempering or similar procedure before installation?
 
I believe the upgraded side-safety 3-position in the model 70 style is a custom part made of steel. I do not believe they are reusing the factory shroud, they are deleting the factory safety, filling the stock with a dutchman where it once was, and installing a new safety on the bolt.

It is not as simple of a job as a mauser 98.
 
@rookhawk is correct. The replacement unit (lever and shroud) is steel. Mine got an upgraded stock, so no dutchman was needed.
 
Here is a picture of an AHR safety installed on a ZKK 602. It just needs blueing but works perfectly

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
