    I like it!

    Good job. Looks fuctional.
     
    Re: That slick TRG Bolt Knob... Well...

    It looks interesting, but I like the original, it nicely slides in my hand or glove, so I can work the bolt fast, but maintain positive grip at the same time. But to each his own...

    I tried something different myself.


    First I made a knob for the existing metric bolt handle.

    My other attempt is that I made this conversion handle, it replaces the factory handle completely. It's appx the same length as the original and is threaded 5/16x24 so most any standard knob will screw on.

    it is fine the way it is but you definitely improved on perfection.

    El Gordo,

    I really like the top one with the grooves and checkering.

    I think it is pretty cool that both of you guys are willing to try and create something new and a bit different. The personal touches add some character to an already great rifle.
