    Titanium Tikka bolt handles.

    I've had Titanium bolt handles on my personal rifle for a while and have had some interest in them.
    Printing costs arnt cheap so gauging interest.
    Would need 10 committed people to go ahead.
    Reasons for one..
    Weight saving, wank factor, looks etc.
    Currently just replacement modeled on the factory one.

    But I could easily modify the design to be straight, longer, curved, threaded, bigger knob. Could even put little hearts on it if you can convince 10 others to want the same thing.
    These are the current ones. Can do right and left
    Prive would be $100

    Make them straight. And put the notch under the dovetail both sides then the suit right and left handed. Just might help you increase your market a smidge

    Super easy to do. But also just as easy to do lefts and rights. But yep see what your saying

    The curved left hand/right hand ones look way nicer than a straight bolt handle ...

    Watching with interest.
    If you have a garden and a library, you have all you need. Oh, and a dog, and a rifle

    I like the skelotonised the new Weatherby MK 5 has a nice one - I have seen photos of a bolt head that was hollowed out with a swerl pattern looked bitch to clean but was very nice - and I do like the old Mannlicher butter knife style - now that skeletonized yes please -
