virgil beesTig welding bolt handle
Can anyone recommend a gunsmith that TIG welds bolt handles. Having trouble finding one in my area.
Tigershabu@aol.comI have all my TIG welding done by Randy Ketchum of Lynwood Guns in WA.
His email address is
Captain Midnight <rketchum@hotmail.com>
PIcture of a bolt handle he cut off, welded an extension, cleaning up weld in the lathe, bent, welded to the bolt body, and shaped with a die grinder, all for $15 But that was two years ago, and prices have gone up.
