I'm getting a new Savage 12FV for Christmas, and I was wondering where I could get a new, thicker, bolt handle like they have on their tactical models and what would be best one for it?
 
Re: New bolt handle for Savage

you can also have the factory one redone by phoenix custom. i love mine. when i get my camera out of the shop, ill post pictures. it was $75 for a halloween special. maybe he will do a christmas one
 
Re: New bolt handle for Savage

The 12FV should come with Savage's factory "large" bolt knob...mine did.

I've got the factory large knobs on 3 rifles...certainly not custom looking but they work very well.

Before buying anything from Sharp Shooters Supply, perform due dilligence on their character as a business. Know what you're getting into.

Yeah, ordering direct from SSS is a pain.

What they do is wait until they have a certain number of orders in for a handle. Only then do they send the request to the shop to make 'em. Mean while, they've already charged your credit card and you're waiting up to 2-3 months.

i just looked at them, i never really payed that much attention to it, i just thought that since it wasnt a tactical model, that it wouldnt have the bigger tactical handle.

Thanks. I think it was $90 including shipping and 1 week turn around. Keith did a great job; The knob looks factory. PCR just did a rifle build for me and they are top notch people.

Dark eagle custom is the best there is . His magazine is top of the line without question . Dan is a great guy to deal with ... best of the best !!!
