Hello guys,
Few weeks ago i have purchased my long-wanted rimfire, Sako Quad Range in .22LR. Speaking of ergonomics, the rifle seems to be perfect spot on for me, i just strongly dislike the original bolt handle and knob. It´s just too short and too small, so I decided to swap it out with something a little more comfortable. The DIP handle should be ideal thing for me:
As the DIP SAKO Quad Bolt handle is out of stock at the moment, i´ve spent days on google trying to find a bolt handle and knob that will suit my rifle. And I managed to find this:
Now, speaking of my problem. Can anybody tell me, is the attachment of bolt handle on my Sako identical to Tikka´s T1X ? I have found many sellers that offer bolt handles compatible with both rifles, but those handles ends just with a thread, that screws into bolt directly (just like the DIP handle). The original bolt handle is secured to bolt with an allen screw that passes through the handle and into the bolt. This handle seems to be held in place just like the original. But as far as I know, the Tikka T1X has a straight bolt handle, Quad has angled one.
Will it fit?
