Indians For Guns

Last saturday I got bored with my IOF .315 and decided to try my hand with bolt checkering.. (If I didnt succeed I could always lop the top off like the lee speed bolt.. )

Using my No.? triangular needle file I tried out a few crossed lines to see how they would look...


hmm.. interesting no??


2 days later


Another two days later Abrakadabra! ..oh my aching fingers..



(I know I missed out a few lines here and there but It's just been too long

Guess I need to get a betterway to align the lines instead of just eyeballing them..

hope it does not rip your palm to shreads

looks real nice, hows the performance?

Well done,Jonah.A checkered bolt knob is very pleasing to the eye.


Best-

though you are not a gun smith you have done a real neat job.you have given me motivation to try on mine.thanks for sharing.

I dared to do this because I have a spare bolt

Jonahpach,

What can I say - WoW!

Wonderful, patient, work; sure does look neat.

Now all it needs is a good blueing.. Maybe next week
