Ive seen the replacement bolt handles for Model 10s and such but nothing for the rimfires. I have the FV with the tiny little ball forged as one piece. Is there a bolt handle out tthere for sale for the MkIIs? Or am I looking at having it turned and threaded? Had thought about buying the Bolt Lift kit from KRG and just filing down the ball to make it fit. Thanks in advance for any input.
I, just this past week, had a friend cut the majority of the ball off my markII and tig weld a case hardened standard 5/16 bolt to the end. once I decide which aftermarket knob I want to go with I'll grind the welds to match the contour. I'll post pics when it's done.
Looking forward to pictures. I'm looking to do a better bolt handle on aModel 93 in 17HMRQuote:

As mentioned, you'll need to have it threaded. They come out pretty decent.
Here's a stainless one

Very nicely done, it really improves the look of the rifle. That's the route I'd like to go with the rifle I'm working on for a friend. Who did the work on yours?
I didQuote:

You ought to start a bolt handle business on the side!

Nice work on the bolt jig.
Wow! I did mine by hand. If I had a lathe like that I'm sure that'd be much much nicer.
