Mod 70 bolt release
« on: December 16, 2004, 01:20:29 AM »
Does any one know where I can get a custom (machined steel) bolt release to replace the stamping that came with factory rifle? Mod. 70 classic LH.

Thank you
JGrass

I also posted this on custom rifles with no response.

Well I haven't seen one anywhere..  So that may be the problem. Try PrecisionMetalSmithing, if they don't make one perhaps they might know someone who does.  Also you might give NewEnglanCustomGun a look see.  They may know where one can be had.  Also a call to Brownells Tech line might be in order.  Perhaps they can help..  If you find one be sure to return and let us know..Thanks!

Thanks alot gunnut 69.
I was getting a little nervous, wasn't sure where to start looking for the release. I've seen some custom RH  releases on full custom rigs but not sure if they were done one off by individual gunsmiths machined out of solid block of steel. They just look nice and finish off the rifle. The stamping works fine, just looks a little cheap to me.
