Bolt Handle for Kimber 308

Post by Magicniner »

A friend asked me if I could make him a titanium bolt handle for his new Kimber.
He gave me the original and asked for the new one 5mm longer, with a larger spherical knob and a lightweight style.
I liked the look of Kinber's Mountain Ascent bolt handle and based the style on that.
It weighs 13.5g

Very nicely done. I've machined just enough titanium to know it's not the easiest of materials to build what you have.
