    Picked up a dirt cheap flat back, need cheap source for bolt handle


    Picked up a flat back 308 (F code) for 175 bucks that was neglected. Bolt handle is cracked, and the barrel has some pitting but it'll shoot and be a fun project down the road. Right handed rifle, anyone know of a real cheap source for flat back bolt handles? (Stock is totally fine). Blued finish preferred.

    Also my other 110 (mid 2000s) has a plastic trigger guard that cracked, any source for a blued metal one on the cheaper side?

    Gunshack will have the metal trigger guard, however they only show round back bolthandles.

    If you were to put a want ad in our classifieds you may just find both.

    Do you have a vise and a bastard file? Pretty easy to turn a round back bolt handle into a flat back bolt handle in a few minutes.
