Re: fluted bolts
Just had mine done, near as I can tell all it does is look good but for me that was worth the 70 bucks

Re: fluted bolts
Does it really grind up brass. I don't care either way for them, but my templar can with it and it was the only option as far as I know.
I'm curious to know if it wears out brass in a worse way than a non fluted bolt.

Re: fluted bolts
rhantz,
That is a nice looking flute job!!!
My wife would have made me upgrade the phone system before I could spend the money for flutes.
What stock is that? It looks cool too?

Re: fluted bolts
I had it done at Kampfeld Custom, great people to work with. Yes it's a 5r. Rotary phones will never go out of style

Re: fluted bolts
Early bolts with strait fluting would ratchet the brass up when the bolt was operated. Spiral fluting eliminated this problem plus it looks way cool!
