Wondering about taking the stock bolt handle and heating it up to reshape it and forge out the ball to lengthen the handle. I am building an Axis bullpup and I would like to extend the bolt handle longer and angle it forward. Figured once it was drawn out, then I could thread the end and screw a knob on the end.
Just didn't know how that alloy would react to being forged and reshaped. Anyone know if it is cast or forged to make it?
Final project pics towards the end
