Where can I send my bolt in to get a Badger bolt knob upgrade installed?

Re: Bolt knob upgrade

You can send it directly to Badger. They will install one for you. I just bought one and did it my self. Looked a little complicated but it was really "Doug Proof". They'll charge you $98.00. Look 'em up. Good luck and good shooting!

P.S. That price includes the knob.

That's a great link to the thread. You'll get a great sense of satisfaction, and save a few pesos too! Be sure to wrap the bolt real good with tape and maybe a rag to avoid any marring. Badger advises .313" diameter before you start threading. I actually started a little thicker, about .350" and used ALOT of oil and went real slow. Again, good luck and good shooting!

Or, send it to Phoenix Custom Rifles. They are fast, do an awesome job, and have tons of options for bolt knobs. They are exceptional to deal with.

I sent mine to the fine folks at GaPrecision. They did a great job.
