Does anyone know if there are any replacement bolt handle knobs that I can swap out for the round knob that comes with the Barrett MRAD? I would like to have a longer tapered replacement instead of the ball. Not sure of the threading on the Barrett. Thanks.

Have you taken the knob off and measured it?
Suggestion to check out Catalyst Arms and look at their bolt knobs. And check Area419 for what they have to offer.
Hi Mike,
Yes, I have and it's an odd ball. 1/4" with 20tpi.
Yeah Pablo, I checked them out and they do not make a knob with the above dimensions. Other problem is going to be the folding stock. So it's looking like a no go just on that alone.
I just bought an MRAD, and plan on making a few parts for it. A new bolt knob was on the list. Let me see what I can come up with, and I may make a small run of them.
Sounds good and will look forward to that. If it works out, I think it will be a popular upgrade.
Did you ever get this project going?
I asked the seller of he could do 1/4 x 20, he said yes. I ordered and mentioned in the notes. He had it in the mail 2 days later

Introducing the new benchrest bolt knob. This smaller profile bolt knob is perfect for not getting in the way but still increasing the surface area you have to hold on to.

Looks good!
So will this accommodate the folding stock also. Thanks
