Years ago, I bought a 110FP in 30-06. It was a custom order and as such they put my name on the bolt. Now I am considering selling the rifle, but I know nobody is going to want to buy a rifle with my name on it. It's an all black rifle so I can't just polish it all day long either.

Is there a way to remove the lettering that Savage does on the bolt?

I have not seen the custom lettering they do on the bolt but if its laser etched a scotch brite pad should work. It removes the savage logos from bolts very well.

buy a new bolt "sleeve". Easy enough to get and easier yet to swap out.

Could you post a link to where I might find such a sleeve?

perhaps the correct term is bolt body. They are readily available at SSS and other suppliers.

Just in case you did not know “SSS” is Sharp Shooter Supply.
You can find them here.
