Miniature knob on a Crickett

[mscott]

Last time at the range my daughter asked if I could make a different knob to make closing the bolt easier. It's kinda hard to get the extractor to snap over the rim of the .22 ammo and the factory knob does leave something to be desired.

It turns out my "universal" jig when set up for a Win 70 bolt did the trick. I made a miniature knob and threaded it 1/4-28. After I turned down the factory knob and threaded it I installed the knob with blue loctite. After a little polishing and I think it turned out pretty good.
My daughter said "that's cool", which made me as happy as anything. Here's a few pics.

NICE JOB! You got me thinking and now I don't know why I don't have tactical scope knobs on my daughter's Cricket.

That is awesome. Now someone just needs to make a chasis system and you'll be good to go.
